Hailee Steinfeld: I Just Won the Lottery!

Hailee Steinfeld feathers it up in this new shot from Blackbook magazine’s 2011 New Regime feature.

The 14-year-old actress stars opposite Jeff Bridges and Matt Damon in this year’s True Grit as Mattie Ross, a role that she won after the Coen Brothers met with 15,000 other girls.

Hailee shared, “It feels like I just won the lottery. It feels like that one-in-a-million kind of opportunity.

She added, “I assumed that I’d be doing a few shorts and some guest-starring, and that I would work my way up. Instead, I’ve gone from A to Z.”

Hailee also stepped out in a vintage Moschino sparkling silver dress at the NYC premiere of the flick held at the Ziegfeld Theatre on Tuesday evening (December 14). She accessorized with Christian Louboutin heels and a Judith Leiber clutch.
