Love that Octavia Spencer. And since I’ve interviewed Shailene Woodley so much her mom is getting suspicious, I pitched The Only O I Adore as someone I’d like to talk to about “Insurgent,” the sequel to “Divergent.”
We last spoke before she won her Oscar for “The Help,” and Spencer has made the most of her victory, stealing scenes in otherwise-bad big budget comedies (“Dinner for Schmucks”), getting a TV series (“Red Band Society”).
And then there was that whole effort to rescue Neil Patrick Harris on Oscar night.
And now she’s getting sci-fi franchise, OK, “Young Adult Sci-Fi Franchise” money.
Questions for Alabama’s Oscar winner? Post a comment, and thanks for the suggestions.

Ask her if being an Extras Casting Assistant helped her to understand the machinations of feature filmmaking. And if Tate Taylor was a good Production Assistant.
