Dakota Johnson appears on Vogue
Fifty Shades of Grey actress Dakota Johnson has entered the world of A-list celebrities with her recent US Vogue cover for February 2015.
In the issue Johnson tackles a range of subjects including why she got involved with the Fifty Shades of Grey movie, to which she responded: "I wanted to be involved because it’s so different," she tells the magazine, "and it’s an intense love story."
The 25-year-old actress gave a monologue from the 1966 psychological drama Persona for her audition for the film. The director Sam Taylor-Johnson remembers. "She understood the nuance of that passage and how to play something delicately. Dakota has the ability to play so fragile and vulnerable, but with this underlying strength that makes you feel she is going to triumph."
"There are tough scenes in this movie, scenes where she had to be naked—and not just in the flesh. But she was utterly fearless and brave," Taylor-Johnson told added during the interview. According to the filmmaker, Johnson and co-star Jamie Dornan had a very special connection and he trusts her with everything.
The star says also talks about seeing the rough cut of the film where she remarks: "It looks beautiful. I’ve never seen anything like it. But it’s confusing to the brain—I still can’t look at it objectively or wrap my head around it. The parts of the movie that are difficult to watch were even more difficult—and emotionally taxing—to shoot."
The star is still getting used to fame even though her parents are famous actors. She told the magazine: "I think about my dwindling anonymity, and that’s really scary because a very large part of me would be perfectly happy living on a ranch in Colorado and having babies and chickens and horses—which I will do anyway," she vows. "It’s just the most insane thing to be a part of. I’ve never experienced anything like this; I don’t think anyone has. It’s terrifying—and it’s exciting."
