PEOPLE has an exclusive first look at Ava DuVernay's appearance on Malcolm Gladwell and Kenya Barris' new interview series 'The Unusual Suspects,' in which DuVernay explains why she has never wanted to get married or start a family.

On a new podcast, writer/director Ava DuVernay says she is just fine without a husband or children and that it was her choice.

In a 2022 interview with InStyle, DuVernay stated: “I didn’t have kids by choice, and I’m not married by choice.” She also reflected on her work ethic, admitting that she’s “a real workaholic,” though she doesn’t see that as a flaw.
