Elle Fanning Says She Wants Children, Reflects on Family Lessons From Sentimental Value

At the Los Angeles premiere of Sentimental Value, the 27-year-old said the drama reshaped her view of family.

Overview

  • In a PEOPLE interview, Fanning said having children is "definitely" part of her future.
  • She made the comments at the Los Angeles premiere of Neon’s Sentimental Value, a Joachim Trier–directed Norwegian drama about sisters reconnecting with an estranged father.
  • Fanning called the story a portrait of a "broken" family and of traumas that can be passed down through generations.
  • She said the film points to the healing potential of art by opening the door to understanding and forgiveness rather than offering tidy resolutions.
  • Fanning and her sister Dakota remain set to co-star in The Nightingale, with Dakota recently saying she feels a bit nervous yet excited after years of being selective about working together.
