Hannah Dakota Fanning (born February 23, 1994) is an American actress. Fanning is known for her roles in blockbuster films and independent features, both as a child actor and as an adult. Her accolades include nominations for a Primetime Emmy Award, a Golden Globe Award, and two Screen Actors Guild Awards.

Fanning received recognition at age 7 for starring in the drama film I Am Sam (2001), for which she was nominated for the SAG Award for Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Supporting Role. She became the youngest nominee in SAG history. Fanning appeared in the films Uptown Girls (2003), Man on Fire (2004), and War of the Worlds (2005), the latter two cementing her stardom. She continued to appear in children's films such as Charlotte's Web (2006) and The Secret Life of Bees (2008). 

She transitioned to mature roles with The Twilight Saga (2009–2012), the independent film The Runaways (2010), and a co-starring role in Night Moves (2013). Fanning has appeared in films such as Ocean's 8 (2018), Once Upon a Time in Hollywood (2019), and The Equalizer 3 (2023). 

Since 2018, she has starred in television series The Alienist (2018), The First Lady (2022), and The Perfect Couple (2024). She has also had a starring role in The Watchers (2024) and received renewed critical recognition for the miniseries Ripley that same year, earning Golden Globe and Emmy nominations.
