Elle Fanning, the little sister of Dakota Fanning, is featured in the Young Hollywood issue of Teen Vogue October 2008.
The 10-year-old actress will make a name all her own as she takes to the big-screen in The Curious Case of Benjamin Button with Brad Pitt and Cate Blanchett.
“I got to wear a long, red wig,” she reports excitedly, “and vintage clothes. I loved it!” The film opens on Christmas Day 2008.
Come holiday season, Elle will also appear in Nutcracker: The Untold Story, which she explains is a version of the classic tale “but the ‘untold’ party is a secret. You’ll have to go see it!”
TEAM ELLE!
FAWNING OVER FANNING
Elle Fanning, Dakota’s little sister, attends the Cotton Market world premiere party for Phoebe In Wonderland held during the 2008 Sundance Film Festival on Sunday in Park City, Utah.
In the film, Elle, 9, plays a little girl named Phoebe, who struggles with her increasingly mysterious and obsessive behavior and her Alice in Wonderland-infused fantasy life. Phoebe seeks enlightenment from her unconventional drama teacher (Patricia Clarkson). Felicity Huffman plays Phoebe’s mother and Bill Pullman also co-stars.
Pictures of Elle and costar Felicity shooting scenes turned up back in May.
Also check out this interview with the film’s director Daniel Barnz at IonCinema.com.
Barnz spoke very highly of Elle: “We went to Elle Fanning, who had made an impression on me in both Door in the Floor and Babel. When I met her I was immediately struck – as I think many people are – by this kind of luminous quality she has about her. In fact, later on, when we were in the height of our pre-production stress and wondering how we were ever going to pull this off – we did our hair and makeup tests. Elle’s face appeared on the screen – there were probably ten people sitting in the room – and there were audible gasps. It sounds like a cliché but it was true – she literally lit up the screen. It really reassured all of us, knowing that we had that kind of presence in the role.”

Here are the first pictures of Felicity Huffman in one heckuva bizarre-o costume on Wednesday from the Long Island set of comedy Phoebe in Wonderland.
The Desperate Housewives actress filmed a fantasy sequence alongside 9-year-old co-star Elle Fanning (Dakota’s little sister, pictured below).
This movie will mark the directorial debut for Daniel Barnz, who also penned the screenplay.
Phoebe in Wonderland stars Fanning as a rebellious little girl who clashes with the rule-obsessed authority figures in her life. She seeks enlightenment from her unconventional drama teacher (Patricia Clarkson). Bill Pullman also co-stars.
Barnz, who apparently loves films with the word “land” in the title, also wrote Sugarland, which Jodie Foster will direct and star in. It’s an upcoming lawyer drama about exploited migrant workers also starring Robert DeNiro.
