YOUNG Dakota Fanning loves playing an evil character in the movie The Twilight Saga: Eclipse.

The 16-year-old actress, who portrays cruel vampire Jane in the blood-sucking movie franchise, admits that she liked being able to transport herself into a nasty character.

Dakota says : "She definitely takes pleasure in using her power to inflict pain on others, which is not a normal thing. So yeah, it was cool to get to transform myself into more of an evil character, which I haven't done before."

The teen star says that acting is the only career that she is interested in, although she would like to continue her education while also acting in films.

Dakota says: "Yes, I want to go to college. I want to be able to act and go to college at the same time. This is absolutely what I want to do with the rest of my life. I can't really imagine doing anything else. It's what I love." - Bang
