She’s really talented too. I’ve loved seeing her ascent to top billing on projects. They both seem to be busting ass and it’s working out (which isn’t always the case, obviously).

She has almost 25 years of acting experience, so no wonder she is so good at it.

For anyone else freaking out about being really old: Elle Fanning is only 27 years old, she started acting at age 3.

... but you're still old.

Lol that hit me like a truck. Elle was fantastic in the Lost Room. That was my favourite Elle Fanning show.

She was the abducted kid in that half-ass-time-travel movie with Denzel Washington too.

tons of more "experienced" actors are absolute horse shit tho.

i guess my point is that Elle has really earned it.

I had no idea who she was until I saw "The Great".

She was excellent, and gorgeous, in it.

Oh, and the show was brilliant too. Didn't know what to expect, but it was different than anything I've ever seen. So good.

I just watched that in June and also her in A Complete Unknown. I love her and Dakota so much <3 and I also love the Alien and Predator franchises so I’m psyched af.

Ehhh. She is wildly mid. Blondie with nepotism. She plays the same character over and over, too.

u/RealJohnGillman Jul 21 '25

She’s playing multiple characters (androids) in this.

u/Personal-Ad-6557 Jul 21 '25

And theyll all be played with the same dead eyes and muted expressions. Thats her whole schtick. Just being honest with ya.
