The world will have to wait a little longer for Dakota Fanning and her mini-me sister Elle to co-star in a film together.
Variety is reporting that Dakota is pulling out of "My Sister's Keeper" because she would have to shave her head for the role, and once Dakota dropped out, Elle did too. Part of the curiosity over Dakota's decision stems other controversial parts she's accepted in the past, namely her role in "Hounddog," where she played a young victim of sexual assault.
Abigail Breslin will be taking Elle's spot and "Medium" star Sofia Vassilieva will take over for Dakota. Production of the film, an adaption of Jodi Picoult's best-selling novel, is set to begin in March.

Tracey!
You've finally wized-up to the world of larger-format jpegs! (I had given up.) I'm only here on accident because I was too buzzed to hit the "Politics" icon atop the main page!
Anyway, a surprise! A nice, detailed Dakota Fanning's braces pic!

"she played a young victim of sexual assault"
That doesn't quite describe it. I mean you can see that 5 times a week on Law & Order: SVU. The controversy was more the graphic scenes depicting the actual abuse.
