Do you remember when actors were almost guaranteed an Oscar if they did a nude scene?

Now, sadly, it sounds like a rite of passage into adulthood.

Dakota Fanning Talks About Doing First Nude Scene In Very Good Girls (VIDEO)

Dakota Fanning grew up on screen, and now the former child actor is ready for her most mature role yet — shedding her clothes for a nude scene in the upcoming drama Very Good Girls.

“I’ve never done that before, and I’m very newly allowed to do that,” Fanning told MTV News during the Sundance Film Festival.

She continued, “I was newly 18, so yeah… it’s kind of a sensitive thing, but it’s a part of life.”

That said, she notes, “No one’s ever comfortable [doing sex scenes].”
