Kirsten Dunst on Why Her Kids Skip Jesse Plemons’ Movies

Kirsten Dunst on Why Her Kids Skip Jesse Plemons’ Movies

Kirsten Dunst and her spouse Jesse Plemons might be iconic figures within the Hollywood sphere, yet their children display a remarkable indifference to their parents’ cinematic legacies.

During an exclusive interview with Us Weekly at the premiere of Roofman in Los Angeles on September 29, Dunst commented, “Sure, they’ve seen Jumanji and Spider-Man. But when I suggest, ‘How about watching Like Mike?’, their immediate response is a firm ‘No.’” However, she added, “They do seem to enjoy Small Soldiers.” It’s worth noting that Like Mike features Plemons in a comedic role about a child’s basketball aspirations, specifically catering to a younger audience.

To clarify, Dunst indicated that “one of my kids” particularly enjoys the said film.

The duo welcomed two sons: Ennis Howard in May 2018 and James Robert in May 2021. Their relationship took a significant step forward with their engagement in 2017, culminating in a Jamaican wedding in 2022.

In their latest collaboration, Dunst and Plemons shared the screen in Civil War, where they had to navigate a gripping scene together—an experience that was as much a professional challenge as it was a personal one.

Recalling the casting luck, Dunst revealed to Seth Meyers on Late Night with Seth Meyers, “During rehearsal, Jesse stepped in when the original actor dropped out. Luckily, he was already in Atlanta with the kids.” The actress further elaborated, stating, “No one wants to embrace that role. It’s quite intense.”

Dunst’s remarks on her husband’s acting prowess were echoed by Meyers, who expressed, “It’s reassuring to see Jesse bring such depth to both heroic and villainous characters, which makes it less unsettling for the audience.”

As pragmatic as ever, Dunst reiterated, “He really knocked it out of the park. He’s a brilliant actor.”

Alas, Dunst’s children might not find the allure of Roofman captivating either. The film, featuring Channing Tatum as the down-and-out Jeffrey Manchester, revolves around a fugitive finding refuge within a Toys “R” Us while ultimately falling for Leigh Wainscott, Dunst’s character, a divorced mother.

When reflecting on her choice to join the cast, Dunst emphasized the significance of collaborations over storylines: “Honestly, it was about my desire to work with Derek Cainfrance. I adore his films and was thrilled for the opportunity to contribute to his narrative vision.”

Dunst also had the unique opportunity to connect with the real Leigh Wainscott as part of her preparation for the film—a move that undoubtedly enriched her portrayal. “Leigh carries an aura of grace,” Dunst commented. “She exhibits remarkable forgiveness about her past and continues to engage with Jeff. Her generous spirit profoundly influenced my depiction of her character.”

In a final homage to her craft, Dunst praised her co-star Tatum, noting, “He’s a delight—an incredibly present performer and genuinely kind.” The anticipation for Roofman builds as it readies itself for a nationwide release on October 10.
