Dakota Fanning

Dakota Fanning made such a big splash in the feature film I Am Sam in 2001 that you probably didn’t realize she’d started her career the year before with guest appearances on shows such as Ally McBeal, ER, CSI: Crime Scene Investigation and Malcolm in the Middle, to name just a few. Although she played a key role in Steven Spielberg’s 2002 TV mini-series Taken, she’d stuck exclusively to film work until 2018, when she accepted a role in Netflix’s psychological thriller, The Alienist, set in 1896 New York. The series, which also aired on TNT, revolves around a serial killer in Manhattan.
