    Elle Fanning "leans on" her older sister Dakota for support

    The 26-year-old actress found fame alongside her elder sibling, 30, in the early 2000s when the pair of them starred in a series of high-profile films and while both of them have gone on to successful adult careers, she still counts Dakota as her "best friend" whom she goes to for advice on everything, especially as they go into business together


    She told US TV show 'Extra': "I lean on her the most. She is my best friend, she is my number-one person I go to her for all the advice, for everything, and so I'm very lucky that I have a sister like that. We both understand what each other does and we understand the business, and to have that person, it's very special."

    "We created a production company together called Lewellen?Pictures where we produce projects together, and we're going to get to be on a panel to answer questions and to talk about our production company and to talk about the power of sisterhood."

    Meanwhile, Dakota - who starred in 'I Am Sam' and 'War of the Worlds' as a child before going on to roles in 'Twilight' and 'Once Upon a Time in Hollywood' - reached her milestone 30th birthday in June and reflected tat the time that despite her early rise to fame, she has been able to stay grounded thanks to the family and friends who surround her.

    She said: "I just have a really great family and really great fans and people that love me a lot and support me. I'm surrounded by people that want the best for me and also will tell me when I'm wrong."
