Glad to see them both on here - they both look beautiful. Even if they both didn't get a lot of attention or award buzz from the general public, I still think this is good for their star image. They are among a lot of talented actresses in this photoshoot (minus Dakota Johnson - LOL). A lot of them major award winners/nominees too.

Johnson is an acclaimed, rising star.

Fantastic group of actors. Dakota seems a bit out of place tho, she was a terrific child actor, but some of the performances in her latest movies have been poor compared to the other actresses in her demographic. Brimstone was ok but she badly needs some knockout performances soon or she'll be lost in the crowd.

reply

This is also my point. She hasn't earned this spot yet, not in recent years so it seems odd to still include her. I'm wondering how they still even get suggested. Again, no noms or any respected noms in years. American Pastoral is her best performance since 2001 but it was a failure.

reply

What? She was great in both 'Night Moves' and 'Very Good Girls.'

reply

Are you serious? That's nothing compared to some of these actors and what they've done lately.

She and Elle can't even begin to compare to Portman this year. Again, they're very lucky and I'm wondering how they pulled this off.

reply

I was just refuting that Fanning has given poor performances as of late.
