The two have partnered up before in films likeI Am Samand the 2002 mini-seriesTaken, but not exactly as siblings. In both productions, little sister Elle played younger versions of Dakota’s characters, which makes sense because of their strong family resemblance. But for the first time ever, the duo willportray sisters in the adaptation of Kristin Hannah’s best-selling novelThe Nightingale.
The statement continued, “As sisters, to share our artistry with each other while bringing such a powerful sister story to life is a dream come true. We are so lucky to have our fearless director, Melanie Laurent, to guide us along on the journey. Let’s do this, sister!!”
