Previously, both of these actresses appeared in I Am Sam together, when Elle Fanning played the younger version of Dakota's character, Lucy Diamond Dawson, in 2001.

Dakota is also known for appearing in Uptown Girls, The Twilight Saga and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, to name a few, while Elle played Princess Aurora in Maleficent and its sequel, Maleficent: Mistress of Evil, and plays Catherine the Great in The Great on Hulu. The Fanning sisters are not strangers to roles in dramatic films, as Dakota was in War of the Worlds in 2005, and Elle was in Super 8 in 2011. In the upcoming flick, Dakota Fanning will portray Vianne Mauriac, and her younger sister, Elle, will portray Isabelle Rossignol, whose tale is similar to de Jongh's.
