Elle Fanning has a crush on Jack Black.

"Oh my God, I met him at the Golden Globes...my boyfriend was with me and he told him, 'You’re her hall pass, by the way,'" she recounted. "Him doing the Sax-a-Boom? It’s just so s---. He’s so funny. He’s so kind. He’s so talented, so himself. I think that’s it — authenticity. It’s infectious...perfect man."

Crushing aside, Fanning also made sure she gave credit to her beau.

"I’m so happy. So happy...when you’re in a happy relationship, it’s like, 'I want to go places with you and share these experiences,'" she said of her connection with Wenner.

Elle Fanning has been dating Gus Wenner since late 2023.

Elle's famous sibling met Gus at a party in Las Vegas while she was away in Paris.

"We were newly dating, and I really cared about him," she explained. "They were at the same after-party — she turned around, and there he was. Then they had this whole night of gambling. Dakota was with all of her girlfriends, and I’m getting sent videos. She’s dancing with Gus."

Dakota enjoyed her time with the Rolling Stone CEO while he looked out for her.

"I used some stern words. Just warnings, cautions said with a smile.… It went great. He’s the brother I never had," the 31-year-old said.

Dakota and Elle Fanning will star in 'The Nightingale' together.

The siblings will share the screen for the first time together in an upcoming adaptation of Kristin Hannah's bestselling novel, The Nightingale.

"The Nightingale will be the first time we act on screen together. We have played the same character at different ages but have never spoken to each other in front of a camera. For years, we have looked for a film to do with one another, and then this gem appeared," they said in a joint statement released in July. "As sisters, to share our artistry with each other while bringing such a powerful sister story to life is a dream come true. We are so lucky to have our fearless director, Melanie Laurent, to guide us along on the journey. Let's do this, sister!!"
