Her grandfather is football player Rick Arrington and her grandmother is ESPN reporter Jill Arrington. Elle followed in her older sister, Dakota Fanning, footsteps in becoming an actress. The sisters were brought up in the Southern Baptist denomination.

Acting Career

Elle began her acting career at the young age of two. She made her start with a minor role as her sister's younger self in "I Am Sam" (2001). Fanning attended her first big Hollywood premiere when she was just three years old. Elle would continue to portray more textured characters in adult-oriented movies in the years to follow. In 2002, Elle again played the younger version of her sister Dakota in "Taken." Once she gave an incredible performance as a hell-raising toddler in the family comedy "Daddy Day Care" (2003), she secured her guest appearances on a string of popular TV shows like "CSI: Miami," "Judging Amy," and "Law & Order: Special Victims Unit".

"The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" (2008). During her teen and pre-teen years, Fanning was often cast as older characters due to her taller-than-average stature. In March 2009, Elle and Dakota were scheduled to star together in "My Sister's Keeper," but the deal fell through when Dakota was unwilling to shave her head for the role. The sisters were replaced by Abigail Breslin and Sofia Vassilieva.

Fanning went on to score major roles in "Phoebe in Wonderland," (2008) and Sophia Coppola's "Somewhere" (2009). In late 2010, Fanning began filming Francis Ford Coppola's 2011 film "Twixt," playing the role of a young ghost named "V." In 2011, Fanning starred as Alice Dainaird in J.J. Abrams' science fiction drama "Super 8." The movie was hugely successful and The Telegraph cited Fanning's performance as one of the film's best aspects. In December 2011, Fanning co-starred in Cameron Crowe's "We Bought a Zoo."
