How Nikki Reed Really Feels About Evan Rachel Wood

Actresses Nikki Reed and Evan Rachel Wood rose to fame in 2003 after starring together in Catherine Hardwicke's cult classic film "Thirteen" (via IMDb). The story for the movie was loosely based on Reed's life and follows hers and Wood's characters as they dive headfirst into sex, drugs, and crime. The young actresses were seemingly inseparable during filming, so it came as a surprise when Reed revealed that she had feuded with Wood for a long time after "Thirteen" premiered.

Reed was a guest on the "Story + Rain" podcast in June 2021 and detailed the rift between her and her famous co-star. "We were too young to realize this at the time, but there were a lot of people that were kind of pitting us against each other, and making it a competitive atmosphere," she said (via Ace Showbiz). "In hindsight, I'm like, 'Of course, because isn't that the recipe for how to treat all young women in this industry?'" 

So are Nikki Reed and Evan Rachel Wood still fighting today?

When Nikki Reed revealed that she and Evan Rachel Wood feuded for a few years after the release of "Thirteen," people immediately started to wonder whether the two actresses were still at odds. 

Thankfully, Reed cleared the air during her conversation with the "Story + Rain" podcast hosts and said she reached out to Wood when they were in their 20s to discuss what went down. Reed called her former costar and said (via People), "Hey, what happened?! You know, I love you so much, and I don't know what happened." 

Apparently, Wood was similarly confused as to what happened between the two, so they agreed to meet in person to hash everything out. "We sat down together and we had two hours of just, like, vomiting up all of our feelings and emotions about the process," Reed said during the podcast. "We really connected the dots and moved past it in that one sit-down." 

These leading ladies are now closer than ever and speak weekly or even daily, depending on what their busy schedules allow.
