Direct from Hollywood with Ryan Seacrest.
Speaker 2 (00:03):
Dakota Johnson has been eying eventually trying her turn it
directing for quite a while now, and we'll finally make
the leap with an upcoming drama. While full details aren't
out yet, we'll see her team back up with autistic
actress Vanessa Berghard, Dakota's co star in Cha Cha Real smooth,
and the opportunity to tell this story and work with
Vanessa again was enough to make Dakota step out of
(00:24):
her comfort zone and say yes to the job. She
tells Variety, I've always felt that I'm not ready to
direct a feature. I don't have the confidence. But with Vanessa,
I feel very protective and I know her very well.
I can see this world, so I just won't let
anybody else do it. That's the real reason Dakota's latest movie, Materialist,
is out now.
Speaker 1 (00:42):
That's Direct from Hollywood.
