Kaitlyn Dever Chats Her Career With Coveteur

Kaitlyn Dever hit the slopes of Aspen for her new interview with Coveteur. Decked head to toe in Chanel, Kaitlyn spoke about her career, success, and fashion. Highlights from her interview are below.

On finding out she was nominated for a Golden Globe: “I knew those announcements were happening at 5:00 AM. I had a lot of champagne with my parents the night before. I woke up in sort of a daze and went into the main house—I live in my parents’ guest house—to watch the broadcast, and I started getting texts from people being like, ‘Oh my god!’ I got a text from the writer of Booksmart, she was screaming at me over text [laughs]. I was like, ‘Wait, what’s going on? I haven’t seen anything, I think something’s delayed.’ And then Beanie called me screaming! [Finally] I was able to see Tim Allen (my TV dad on Last Man Standing) announce my name, and that just felt like a really, really big moment.”

On her love of creating playlists: “Yeah! I’ve always made playlists for every character I’ve played. It’s something I picked up from Jason Reitman—before we started shooting Men, Women & Children, he emailed, ‘What is your character’s favorite song?’ It was so cool. That was the first time I ever thought of using that as a tool for character development. Ever since then I’ve made full-on playlists. I also made Beanie and [me] a car playlist for the ride to work or when we were driving to rehearsal.”
