Dakota Johnson as Marilyn Monroe Revealed in First Look at ‘Flesh Impact’

Dakota Johnson is playing Marilyn Monroe in an upcoming short film — and a first-look photo of Melanie Griffith and Don Johnson‘s daughter as the iconic blonde bombshell is here.

On July 29, Genesis published a news release about the 17-minute film, which is set to premiere at the 2026 Venice International Film Festival in September. Johnson, 36, will portray Monroe “at the height of her fame,” while Ellen Burstyn, 93, will play a version of the Hollywood legend “the world never had a chance to see.”
