Sean Penn Once Left His Flip Flops at Dakota’s House for Three Months
Dakota shared an interesting tale about Sean Penn at the event. She revealed that before filming Daddio the actor once visited her house and left his flip-flop there for about three months.
The ‘Madame Web’ actress said, “When we were figuring out who [his character] Clark was gonna be, we were like, oh, we need a Sean Penn type. And I was like, maybe Sean Penn. So, I went over and I was like, ‘Can you read this?’
“He comes over for brunch. Sometimes he wears flip-flops. You wouldn’t expect that,” she added.
The ‘Fifty Shades of Grey’ actress mentioned, “I didn’t expect it. And then he left them there at my house for like three months. Everyone was like, whose shoes are these?”
“But yeah, so we had a friendship before and I think it made it feel really like we could really play with the power dynamics in that,” continued the actress.
Moreover, Dakota shared her filming experience with the actor while depicting a long car ride. She said, “felt like Sean and I were in a little world of our own.”
The movie’s director, Christy Hall, mentioned that in addition to filming a cab throughout its journey, the production utilized a soundstage to record the actors inside the taxi.
“It felt just so cozy and private. And I think it also made everyone that we were working with feel like everybody knew what we were making, what the goal was,” said the actress.
Dakota stated, “It was extremely collaborative and like a real little cozy family.”
