PRISCILLA Star Cailee Spaeny Covers V Magazine’s New Winter Issue

Pin
Introducing V MAGAZINE’s November/December issue, V145, starring actor Cailee Spaeny—the lead of Sofia Coppola’s highly anticipated new film, PRISCILLA. Across three covers, the rising ingénue is photographed by Rob Rusling and styled by Anna Trevelyan. She channels three of Hollywood’s ultimate silver screen sirens—Audrey Hepburn, Liza Minelli, and Elizabeth Taylor—as she prepares to join the ranks of the film industry’s leading women this season. V’s own Savannah Sobrevilla sat down with Spaeny to talk entertainment in the Southern Midwest, catching the eyes of Sofia Coppola, and stepping into the role of one of the most iconic muses of all time.

“As a young actress, I think it’s important to go back and look at the women who paved the way for me. I find them fascinating on-screen and off-screen. I’m having a lot of fun in terms of fashion looking at these timeless beauties who have what I think we lack in today’s age: mystery. That’s what keeps us coming back to them because they kept something to themselves.” – Cailee Spaeny

“Sofia is such an interesting director because she’s so soft-spoken. A lot of the time directors command control and authority, usually by being the tough guy on set. But Sofia is the exact opposite of that. Her friends say she’s like an iron fist in a silk glove.”- Cailee Spaeny

“There [were] gonna be talks of auditions but then Kirsten Dunst—obviously her muse–put in a good word for me because she likes my performances, and that, I think, was the final step. The crossover of those worlds was absolutely wild for me to process.” – Cailee Spaeny

V Magazine Issue #145 will be available to pre-order on shop.vmagazine.com on November 2.
