Dakota: I'm a normal kid

NEW YORK, April 29 (UPI) -- Dakota Fanning has starred in films with Denzel Washington, Mike Myers and Sean Penn, but she insists she is just a regular child.

"I am a normal kid," the 9-year-old "Man on Fire" star told reporters in New York recently. "I just happen to do something that I love to do, which is acting. I go home and I play with my dolls and my sister. So, I do all the normal things that kids do. I just do acting, (too.)"

Asked if she prefers making comedies or dramas, Fanning said she likes to mix things up a bit.

"All my movies have been different. 'Cat in the Hat' is very different from 'Man on Fire' and 'I Am Sam' is very different from 'Uptown Girls,' so I've been very lucky to do all different kinds."

Fanning is now filming the psychological thriller "Hide and Seek," opposite Robert De Niro.
