She admitted her disappointment when her scenes as Mary Jane were cut from The Amazing Spiderman 2 this year.

But that doesn't mean 21-year-old actress Shailene Woodley isn't destined for big things.

The Secret Life of the American Teenager -who has dared to bare for Interview magazine posing topless in a new shoot - already has a string of other movie projects lined up.

Daring to bare: Shailene Woodley disrobed for the current issue of Interview magazine

Interestingly, Shailene's would be co-star Emma Stone interviewed her for the article in InterviewMagazine and talked about her busy career as well as her body image.

The actress spoke about her body insecurities and desire not to wear make up and premieres all the time, in a bid to show her true self.

She said: 'It's important because I saw somebody—what I thought was me—in a magazine once, and I had big red lips that definitely did not belong on my face.'

Locks: Shailene grabbed her hair in the sultry black and white shoot, which accompanied an interview with the star by fellow actress Emma Stone

'I had boobs about three times the size they are in real life. My stomach was completely flat. My skin was also flawless. But the reality is that I do not have those lips and my skin is not flawless and I do have a little bit of a stomach.

Adding: 'It was not a proper representation of who I am. I realized that, growing up and looking at magazines, I was comparing myself to images like that—and most of it isn't real.'

However, the young star did admit to wanting to dress up for the Academy Awards.

'I do think it's fun sometimes to dress up for the Oscars or for certain events—I get to be like a five-year-old again, wearing my Cinderella dress. But for some events where it's a more casual vibe, I just want to be me.'

Talking about filming in different cities for work, The Descendents actress said: 'Right now I'm filming in Chicago, and I'm in an apartment building 35 stories up in the air, and I've never lived in a city where I have to be careful about walking around my house naked because the business office next door will be able to see me at 7 a.m.'

But she certainly didn't seem to mind disrobing for the glossy magazine shoot.

Shailene won an Independent Spirit Award for her role alongside George Clooney in the hit film The Descendents and will next be seen starring opposite Kate Winslet in Divergent.

Speaking about her role being cut from the next Spiderman movie earlier this year, Shailene said: 'Of course I'm bummed. But I am a firm believer in everything happening for a specific reason.

'Based on the proposed plot, I completely understand the need for holding off on introducing until the next film.'
