Elizabeth Olsen and Dakota Fanning in Brooklyn (Pacific Coast News)
Dakota Fanning and the other Olsen sister have been filming Very Good Girls around town, and now the production has put out a casting call alert for their nude body doubles, since the barely legal characters will be getting naked on Brighton Beach in the movie. Sheepshead Bites reports:
Producers for the film recently announced that stars Dakota Fanning and Elizabeth Olsen will not be going naked for the movies’ beach scene and will be holding a casting call for body doubles on Monday, July 16 in Brooklyn. The body doubles will be given clothing to cover their fronts, but will be seen “bare back all the way down, top and bottom” while on Brighton Beach.
Producers are asking that those interested "have great bodies and not be too sun tanned.” While Dakota Fanning did just turn 18, this still creeps us out, since we remember her more for I Am Sam than Hounddog.
