But can she sing? (Spoiler alert: Yes)

Actress Elle Fanning is proving herself to be quite the double-threat.

The young star is set to showcase her stunning vocal range in the upcoming film Teen Spirit, which follows the story of Violet - a seemingly pained teenage girl who tries her luck auditioning for a singing competition reality TV show.

Having premiered at SXSW earlier this week, the heartfelt flick has won praise largely due to Fanning's performance and strong singing capabilities. One such performance, which has been shared ahead of the film's release, sees Fanning do a rendition of Robyn's emotional club hit 'Dancing On My Own'.

Written and directed by Max Minghella (who you'll know from his on-screen role in The Handmaid's Tale), the movie also stars Rebecca Hall, Agnieszka Grochowska, and Zlatko Buric. It's slated for release later this year.
