Dakota johnson

Born on October 4, 1989, this young woman from Texas, United States, is the daughter of actors Melanie Griffith and Don Johnson . Her future, then, was linked to the world of acting. Her grandmother is the well-known actress Tippi Hedren ; and in this bag of hers is also her stepfather, Antonio Banderas , with whom she debuted in 1999 with the comedy Locos en Alabama , where she shared a set with her mother and her stepsister, Stella del Carmen Banderas.

As a child she studied at the Aspen Community College, and there she started dancing. At just sixteen years old, she signed her first contract to be a model for the Mango brand. After finishing her studies she got fully into show business, she signed with the William Morris agency.

In 2010 we saw her again in the cinema in David Fincher ‘s acclaimed film , The Social Network , although she only had a small appearance with Justin Timberlake . Her next productions were small dramas like For Ellen , a B-series road movie or The Heart of the Beast (2011), a somewhat different adaptation of the book “Beauty and the Beast”, in which her character is ephemeral. .

Not getting good roles on the big screen, he decided to try the Ben and Kate series. It was only on the air for one season, but her role as a young neat freak on the FOX sitcom gave her some cachet. From 2012 to 2015, she was seen in discreet productions such as the comedy Eternally Committed ; she was also in the hilarious Goofy Class , where she sided with Channing Tatum and Jonah Hill ; and in 2014 she premiered Cymbeline , a modern adaptation of a Shakespeare play, in which she starred with Ed Harris and Ethan Hawke .. It’s a crime drama about drugs and dealers, and Dakota got one of the most starring roles of hers.

Her choices did not seem the most successful, everything indicated that she would become a second-rate actress with little cachet. The adaptation of the racing video game Need for Speed ​​(2014) and the youth comedy Date and Switch (2014) did not bode well for her. She until she received a call that would change her life. In 2015, she would premiere the highly anticipated adaptation of the erotic novel Fifty Shades of Grey . It achieved a scandalous gross of more than half a billion dollars in just three weeks from its opening on Valentine’s Day, although critics were very harsh on the Sam Taylor-Johnson film., and came to consider it as a bad joke that bored and disappointed in equal parts. Precisely the only thing that was saved from her sieve was her. Months after the premiere, Johnson would travel to Ibiza, Spain, to shoot the summer short for the Estrella Damm beer under the orders of Alejandro Amenábar .
