As a third-generation celebrity, Dakota Johnson is a gifted actress who seemed to have inherited her family’s acting prowess. Dakota is the granddaughter of Tippi Hedren and the daughter of Don Johnson and Melanie Griffith. She made her on-screen debut in the film Crazy in Alabama. Following her modeling career, Johnson landed a small role in the Oscar-winning drama The Social Network. The film also earned her and her co-stars a flurry of Best Ensemble awards from film festivals.

When Dakota got her biggest acting credit as the naive Anastasia Steele in the film adaptation of E.L. James’ Fifty Shades of Grey, she became one of Hollywood’s most well-known young actresses. Despite different reviews, the film was a box office triumph, and she reprised the role in the sequels. She may have gotten her parents acting skills, Dakota has proven over time that she can make her own mark in the industry.
