During a recent interview, Dakota revealed what she looks for before taking on a new role.

“I’ve always wanted to make sure that the characters I’m playing have an equal voice to their male counterparts and to play complicated women,” Dakota said via Deadline. “I think that’s always been important to me, a no-brainer to me, I was raised to feel empowered.”
