Her character in the film suffering from terminal lukemia, determined to live fast, while completing a list of things to do before she dies most of them illegal.
I hadnt thought of casting an American at all but the minute I met Dakota, I thought she was fantastic, director, Parker, tells ELLE, praising the young actress.
Kaya Scodelario, who found fame in E4's Skins plays Dakotas rebellious best friend Zoe in the film. Ive never worn anything quite like it before," the actress said of her on screen style which combines grunge with charity-shop-chic - a contrast to her red carpet look.
