Full Story
Dakota Johnson, the actress best known for her portrayal of Anastasia Steele in the “Fifty Shades of Grey” film franchise, comes from a family of famous actors. Her parents, Don Johnson and Melanie Griffith, were married twice and first met on the set of “The Harrad Experiment.” Don and Griffith reunited in 1989, the same year they had their daughter Dakota. Although her parents discouraged her from pursuing acting, Dakota knew that’s what she wanted to do and had her breakthrough role in “Fifty Shades of Grey.”
Despite her family’s connections, Dakota had to rely on herself financially when pursuing acting. Her father encouraged his kids to stay in school but also supported their financial needs if they chose to pursue higher education. Dakota, however, knew that acting was her passion, and it paid off when she landed her first role in the film “Crazy in Alabama” at just 10 years old. Her mother starred in the film, while her then-stepfather, Antonio Banderas, directed it.
Dakota is also close with Banderas, whom she considers her “bonus dad” even after Griffith’s divorce from him in 2015. She presented Banderas with the best actor award at the Hollywood Film Awards and called him “one of the most influential people” in her life. Dakota comes from a family of actors, but her road to success wasn’t without its obstacles. Her parents discouraged her from pursuing acting for a normal childhood, but in the end, they can’t deny the talent and passion that led her to success.
Next, Dakota is set to join Sony’s Spider-Man universe as the titular character in “Madame Web.” With her impressive acting skills and famous family background, there’s no doubt that Dakota will continue to make waves in the film industry. Despite her family’s connections, she has forged her own path and cemented her status as a talented actress in her own right.
