After filming the second season of the series on Catherine the Great, 24-year-old American actress Elle Fanning confessed that she wanted to become a mother. And this desire was facilitated by the role of the pregnant Russian Empress Catherine II, played by El.
The girl said she was just obsessed with the idea of motherhood and really liked the fake belly, as well as how she looked in the frame being “pregnant”.
“The costume designers told me that my body would look as close as possible to what it would be like if I got pregnant. It was kind of crazy. I really liked the way it looked and wanted to get pregnant,” Elle Fanning said.
Note that the second season of the series on the Russian Empress Catherine II starts on Hulu on May 12. This series cannot be called historical, it is more like an anti-historical comedy-drama.
