Los Angeles,  (IANS) Hollywood actress Dakota Fanning has shared that the thought of working together on ‘The Nightingale’ with her sibling Elle sent them spiralling in panic.

‘The Nightingale’ is a historical drama. Dakota spoke about feeling anxious prior to shooting the movie adaptation of Kristin Hannah’s war novel.

Dakota recently appeared on ‘The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon’, where she said, "We were quietly nervous about it. I think we didn’t really want to tell the other one how nervous we were”.

Dakota, 32, shared that she was initially unsure how they'd work around on a movie set, as she said, "We were like, ‘Are we gonna laugh? Like, are we gonna be able to keep it together?’ It’s the person that knows you best in the world that you’re acting with, and we’re super close. We were a little silently panicked. I was nervous because she had made it clear that I was not allowed to do any older sister behaviour on set. I had to treat her like I would treat any other actor. And I did, for the most part”.

Their dynamics as siblings were exposed during a particular moment, as Dakota said, "Right towards the end, there was a scene we were doing, it was like this really hot room and we were on this couch, and I was like, ‘Move your leg’. And she was like, ‘My leg has been here all day’. I was like, ‘No, it hasn’t. Get off of me. I’m too hot. You’re sweating on me’. She was like, ‘You’re sweating on me’. I was like, ‘Stop talking’”.

Dakota recalled the movie's crew breaking into laughter over the incident.

Los Angeles, (IANS) Hollywood actress Kristen Stewart isn’t too much of a fan of what she did in ‘Twilight’. The actress has said that she felt she was a "pretentious little loser" while shooting for the film.

The 36-year-old actress, who was just 17 years old when she shot the first movie in the series, reflected on playing Bella Swan.

She also spoke about how seriously she and her co-star Robert Pattinson took the project. The actress said on the ‘In Your Dreams With Owen Thiele’ podcast, “The first one, we were talking about this earlier ‘cause someone else asked about it, but I was like such a pretentious little loser. It was so so serious. Me and Rob were like, ‘Yeah, this is like f****** epic, like, let’s try and, like, elevate this s***’. And it’s like, just be exactly what age you are, and like say the words”.

The actress further mentioned that she and Robert, 40, had a very "teenage" attitude at the time.

She said in jest, “It was always like, ‘Oh my God, embarrassing. God, I just wanted to be like f****** real and it’s, like, impossible. Everyone’s like making it f****** impossible for it to be like f****** real. And then you look at it, and you’re like, it was f****** real. “Anything too much is so perfect for that period of time, where you're not going to do subtle stuff when you’re, like, a teenager dying”.

The actress, who dated Robert for four years after meeting him on the set of the first film in 2008, said that it took some time after the films ended to appreciate them for what they were.

She said, “It's really funny ‘cause it was like we did five of those movies, and it took five years, and then we've never stopped talking about it. During the time in which they were coming out, we were always being asked to look at it from the outside, which was not possible to do yet”.Her comments about the serious nature of the performances echo similar marks made by Robert in April.
