Here's something we're not used to seeing!

While filming scenes for her new indie movie Franny in Philadelphia today, Dakota Fanning, 19, was snapped sporting a fake baby bump under her clothes.

The all-grown-up actress sported a long blue skirt, dark jacket and baggy gray top that hugged her big belly. Fanning, who was all smiles on set, completed her character's look with dark sunglasses.

Franny stars Fanning as a pregnant newlywed. Theo James costars as Fanning's hubby while Richard Gere plays a philanthropist who finds renewed purpose in life when he meddles in the lives of the young married couple in a bid to relive his past.

The film is written Andrew Renzi, who developed the script at this year's Sundance Screenwriters Lab and will be making his feature directing debut with the film.

Gere was recently spotted looking unrecognizable while filming scenes for the flick in long white hair and a scarf and cane.

Meanwhile, last week, Fanning was spotted strolling around NYC holding hand with her super-cute (and much older) 32-year-old boyfriend Jamie Strachan. The couple has been dating for a few months after meeting through mutual friends.
