She transitioned to mature roles with The Twilight Saga (2009–2012), the independent film The Runaways (2010), and a co-starring role in Night Moves (2013). Fanning has appeared in films such as Ocean's 8 (2018), Once Upon a Time in Hollywood (2019), and The Equalizer 3 (2023). 

Since 2018, she has starred in television series The Alienist (2018), The First Lady (2022), and The Perfect Couple (2024).
