Dakota Fanning | I Am Sam
Dakota Fanning came to prominence at seven years old for her iconic performance in the 2001 film I Am Sam as Lucy Dawson. For her work in the movie, she bagged a Screen Actors Guild nomination at age eight, making her the youngest ever nominee in SAG history. She also portrayed significant roles in Uptown Girls, The Cat in the Hat, and Charlotte’s Web.
By the late 2000s, the young star followed more mature roles, playing the titular character in Coraline and appearing as Jane in The Twilight Saga. Fanning continued appearing in independent productions throughout the 2010s. She also debuted her modeling career and was featured in several fashion magazines like Vanity Fair, Elle, and Cosmopolitan. She walked the runway in the 2014 and 2015 New York fashion week. Without a doubt, Fanning’s dual career as an actress and model has upscaled her credit score in Hollywood.
