“Secrets of Transformation: How Laura Eason Breathed New Life Into ‘Three Women’ as a Bold TV Masterpiece”
The Starz series Three Women follows four women—Gia (Shailene Woodley), Lina (Betty Gilpin), Sloane (DeWanda Wise), and Maggie (Gabrielle Creevy)—as they explore their desires, intimacy, and vulnerability over several years. Eason, who pioneered the project alongside Taddeo, leads intense conversations that bring the complex narrative to life.
