What happened to Dakota Fanning?

[Jayson]

Last time she made any news was with that artsy farsty movie where she gets raped. That seems like along time ago and since then she seems to have vanished from the world of movies not to mention so did that rape movie. Did it even come out?

Do you think her career is dead even before she gets a chance to transition into a teen star by doing a teen comedy or Pg-13 horror movie? I supose it's good we haven't hard anything about her being arrested with cocaine in her car or something like that so even if her career is dead shen might not go the way of other child actors who flopped at trying to act once they stopped being a kid.

Her wikipedia article says she has filmed several movies recently, all to be released soon - including "Hounddog," the movie you alluded to with the rape scene. So it just hasn't been publically released yet.

This movie "Push" that she's in might be interesting. A sci-fi thriller about psychics who've gone into hiding from the US government.

According to IMDB, she has 5 movies in various stages of production, none of which are teen comedies, thankfully, and several of which actually look pretty interesting.

1. Hurricane Mary (2008) (Pre-production)
2. Push (2009/II) (Post-production) .... Cassie Holmes
3. Coraline (2008) (Post-production) (voice) .... Coraline
4. The Secret Life of Bees (2008) (Post-production) .... Lily Owens
5. Winged Creatures (2008) (Completed) .... Anne Hagen

It would appear that she, or her parents or managers or whatever, have no interest in transitioning her into a "teen star" and are sticking to fairly serious roles for her. Of course she's only what, 14?

Yea and has already shared billing with Robert De Niro in a movie...so clearly her Parents/Managers don't want her going down the path of Lohan and Spears.

No, she'd be sweet sixteen now.

Good to see that they're giving and getting her good roles and not the same bullshit that destroyed Lindsay Lohan's career, and that they're also charting a course that won't see her end up like Lohan did, or like Miley Cyrus has now, appearing in a age inappropriate photo spread. (hers have been somewhat tasteful.) It seems that she is going to be like Jodie Foster or Christina Ricci someday.

Sounds like its the cousin to the Nic Cage movie NEXT.

I absolutley LOATH this girl. While watching War of the Worlds I was hoping the aliens would kill her. I can't stand her.

She was born Feb. 23 1994.

2008 - 1994 = 14 years old

Well, with Tom Cruise and Dakota Fanning, the most sympathetic characters are the aliens.
