Sam Taylor-Johnson mentions Dakota with "LA Times"

From LA Times:

[...]
To cast Anastasia, somewhat improbably, she had actresses read an intense, four-page monologue from the 1966 Ingmar Bergman film "Persona" before settling on Johnson, the actress and model who is the daughter of Don Johnson and Melanie Griffith.

"Considering the world in which she grew up, Dakota has a very sweet, naive sensibility, but she has this inner strength and power which exudes on screen," Taylor-Johnson said of her leading lady. After a previous actor, Charlie Hunnam, fell through, Northern Irish actor Jamie Dornan, known mainly for his television and modeling work, was cast as Christian Grey on the strength of his chemistry with Johnson.
