Vollständige Biografie
Elle Fanning is a distinguished American actress and producer known for her ethereal screen presence and remarkably versatile range. Born on April 9, 1998, in Conyers, Georgia, she followed in the footsteps of her older sister, Dakota, making her film debut at just two years old. After gaining early recognition in J.J. Abrams’ Super 8 and Sofia Coppola’s Somewhere, she transitioned seamlessly from child stardom to complex leading roles in both independent cinema and major studio franchises.
She reached global stardom as Princess Aurora in Disney’s Maleficent series, but it was her critically acclaimed performance as Catherine the Great in the satirical series The Great that earned her multiple Emmy and Golden Globe nominations. In 2026, she solidified her status as a powerhouse performer with her first Academy Award nomination for her role in Joachim Trier’s Sentimental Value. Beyond the screen, Fanning is a fashion icon and an active producer through her company, Lewellen Pictures, continuing to shape the industry both in front of and behind the camera.
