Teen movie veteran Julia Stiles (Save the Last Dance, 10 Things I Hate About You) has been doing everything within her power to expand her image.
First, she signs on for a more serious bit part in the Bourne series, and now at the tender age of 26 she is trying her hand behind the camera.
For her first piece, Stiles has written and directed Raving, a 20 minute film inspired by a short story that ran in Elle Magazine. It stars Zooey Deschanel and will premiere on the Sundance Channel on Monday, May 8.
According to julia-stiles.com, Stiles says her short film will be about "how the seemingly simple act of getting dressed shapes one's identity."
How very, very deep.
