Dakota Johnson Reveals the One Secret She’s Never Shared—Until Now
When was the last time an actress admitted she took a role just for the free vacation? Dakota Johnson isn’t one for sugarcoating—she’s starring in Materialists, director Celine Song’s new romance, and she’s managing to slip in as much dry wit as she does screen presence . (If you’ve ever wondered if Pedro Pascal and Chris Evans are more like Oscar-winning actors or raccoons, you’re about to get your answer .) In a world where interviews are usually a snooze-fest of canned answers and sanitized ambition, Dakota is out here openly plotting yo-yo tricks and metaphorically committing parental homicide . Yes, my inner digital marketer wants to optimize for every juicy keyword associated with Dakota Johnson, but my inner Sarah Silverman says: “Wait, did she just say she keeps extra bangs in her purse?” Get ready for a ride—love, ambition, and, uh, questionable book club choices await… LEARN MOREDakota Johnson stars in Materialists, a new romance from director Celine Song. The Onion sat down with the actress to discuss love, ambition, and what’s next.
The Onion: What drew you to Materialists?
Johnson: I wanted a free trip to New York City. I’d never been before. It’s cute.
The Onion: What was it like working with Pedro Pascal and Chris Evans?
