Dakota Johnson In Summer Bikini Would 'Love To Play A Psychopath'

Actress Dakota Johnson is the talk of Hollywood!

After her highly publicized split from singer Chris Martin, the "Madame Web" actress has been focused on her career, but she has also been taking the time to soak up the sun.

Scroll for the photo. Summer is here, and it looks like the actress is embracing her new single status. She was recently photographed lounging on a yacht with Kate Hudson and a few other celebrity friends, like Tom Brady.

The NFL legend is also single, leading some to speculate that there might be a hot new Hollywood couple on the horizon. However, Brady was also seen dancing until 2 AM with actress Sydney Sweeney at Jeff Bezos's wedding, so it could just be that they are all enjoying the single life!

The "Fifty Shades of Grey" actress recently spoke at a press roundtable at the 59th edition of the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival (KVIFF) in the Czech Republic. During a wide-ranging interview, she revealed that she wants to play a psychopath in the future.

“There are roles that I dream of playing,” she shared, as per The Hollywood Reporter. “I would love to play a psychopath, would love to do an action film.”

In addition to playing bolder characters, she revealed that she wants to dip her toe into directing, but doesn't think she has the confidence for a big feature project.

“I think I will direct a feature, a very small one, hopefully soon," she teased. She went on to say:

“I’ve always felt that I’m not ready to direct a feature. I don’t have the confidence.”

However, she has already directed the Coldplay music video “Cry Cry Cry” and the short film "Loser Baby."

When it comes to projects she wants to get involved in, Dakota revealed that she is usually drawn to projects that are "either visually or emotionally provocative," but not necessarily in a sexual way.

"I mean it in [the sense] that it provokes something that is different than what you see on TV right now or on streaming platforms," she explained. "A lot of them are also female characters."

Elsewhere in the interview, she talked about how she liked films that had strong, complex female characters, especially ones that include an anti-hero.

She said she likes "female-centric films where the woman is different from what you see, and complex and nuanced, and maybe [feature] an anti-hero that you love.”

She went on to give the example of a woman “who maybe does things that you would deem atrocious, but you are really on her side because she’s angry."
