"More than I wanted to tell their stories, I wanted to hear them myself. They all had the audacity to believe that they deserved more," says Woodley's Gia, who serves as a narrator for each woman's story as they're introduced in the trailer.
"I want to tell the world their stories. Our particular pain comes from wound sites we can’t see on one another. The thing we can do to understand is to listen, to really listen," she adds.
Earlier this week, Taddeo reflected on writing Three Women in a candid Instagram post.

Betty Gilpin in "Three Women""Lina’s story in THREE WOMEN was one of the easiest for me to write, in large part because I identified with many of her traumas, and I was able to convey enough of my own experience so that she felt understood enough to so very eloquently communicate her own. Naturally then I was nervous about its retelling on the screen," she wrote.
