Dakota Johnson apparently had an epic reaction when her father, actor Don Johnson, told her she would be removed from the family’s ‘payroll’.
Don Johnson said during a performance on “Late Night With Seth Meyers” this week that his daughter has never asked him for career advice and that she has focused on her own life since high school.

“We have a rule in the family that, you know, if you stay in school, you stay on the payroll. So when you go to college, you stay on the payroll, ”he said.

He went on to say that he asked his daughter how she would be.
She didn’t miss a moment and said to him, “Don’t worry.”
The “Knives Out” actor confirmed that he didn’t have to because she was cast on “The Social Network” about three weeks later.
“And the rest is, say, movie history,” he concluded.
