It's really nice to hear that Kirsten wasn't exposed to inappropriate ideas unnecessarily while filming Interview. What a fantastic careers. We are lucky to have had her talent.
The way she comes across in this interview is so relaxed and natural. I feel like we're two parents at our kids' baseball game and we're sitting in the stands talking about work and she just happens to have an exponentially more interesting job than me.
The biggest difference between her and other child stars I noticed, is a pattern of her being VERY protected by cast, crew, and her mother. It takes a village they do say and she was lucky to be surrounded by great people not just professionally but personally as well.
I remember Taylor swift saying her mom was with her every step of the way. Her dad too when he was able to be. But yeah obviously having parental oversight is sooooo important
For the former child actors who are typical, healthy adults (who may still be in the industry), I notice they have the same experiences of being super protected on sets. They didn’t know all the drama, they weren’t going out, they had their parents on set at all times. But the sets themselves were kid-friendly. I also don’t think there are a LOT of former child actors who went off the rails, we just obviously hear about the ones who did. But most of them are functional, regular adults, whether or not they continued in the tv and film industries.
i noticed this too but also had the thought of her mentioning it so much that she’s scared to say anything but what she says, i hope not bc it’s refreshing to hear !!
It's SO refreshing to see a child star who grew up to be a normal, functional adult, still acting, so naturally talented, NOT a nepo baby, totally unproblematic, just a normal person with a good head on her shoulders who happens to be a famous actress. And to top it off she's talented and she makes great film choices. She's a rare gem in a town like Hollywood. If more actors were like her, people wouldn't hate celebrities so much.
she stayed in a house with her mum when filming......imo contributes towards her being normal and functional! all these messed up kids usually have parents that let them go off and do whatever with whoever 😔
She said it, she was protected during interview with the vampire… its a testament to her parents doing it right and having standards and controls in place for her
It sounds like she also got lucky enough to work on sets that were not toxic, dysfunctional, or predatory. If only every child (and actor in general) had those same supportive experiences.
So...Drew Barrymore, Macauley Culkin, Brooke Shields, Corey Haim etc - if they only had the right attitude...? It has more to do with the attitude of those around them. The entertainment industry can a dangerous place for kids!
She's truly a natural beauty and it's refreshing, not even a bit of lip filler. Her small lips fit her face perfectly. Compared to all the other aging stars, she's unique and has aged so gracefully.
"I was playing with Barbies for probably far too long" I so relate to her on this, & as an adult, really, really am thankful for this. Far too often little girls try to grow up too quickly, to adulthood & past childhood, for which you can never get back. So I'm very thankful for my late blooming, as it was. Knowing now that i can never rewind the clock, this is something I'll eternally b grateful for. The fact that Kirsten was, on some level, the same, is quite extraordinary, given her industry surroundings.
You know how refreshing it is to hear a woman who is humble yet has confidence in herself?!? The Spider-Man audition story when she goes back in the room for her CD case, and then said she could tell from the looks on their faces, she had the role and thought, “You did it, you nailed it”…..I love that she said that bc so many women feel like they have to play coy when they’re amazing at something. Very cool person and exactly why I loved her growing up…relatable and confident. Love her.
I was coming here to make almost this EXACT COMMENT. Too often female celebrities seem to feel like they can’t accept their well-earned compliments because they’ll be accused of “having an ego”, or they feel like they need to go far to the other end of the spectrum, which is self-confidence to the point of disregarding all the people and circumstances that helped support them getting to where they are. Kirsten Dunst balances this beautifully. Confidence, gratitude, pride in her work ethic, well aware of the opportunities afforded to her… incredibly refreshing, I agree!
She is so amazing in "Interview With The Vampire"! At such a young age, she was incredible! Gave a very intense performance. Happy to see how well she was treated on that set!
The first film I would've seen her in and I didn't even realise it was her, can't believe they skipped it. Was the only film I came here to see her talk about.
She was overlooked for so long, even with that incredible filmography under her belt. I have a feeling she's now finally entering a period, post-ingenue, where she'll be getting her proper dues.
@@TMV420 I know awards are not important if the movie connects with an audience, but only one Oscar nomination? And being known as Mary Jane for so long with that many impecable performances even as a child? I usted to think some actors deserved more. I'm tired of these new faces EVERYWHERE when people like her seem overlooked. But then I understood that some actors love the craft and aren't as mediatic, that's why we don't hear about them so often, they aren't craving attention. Good for them for not playing the Hollywood game
Hollywood keeps striking out on finding a new generation of stars that they can’t help but revisit people who should have been bigger anyway. With that said, I think Kirsten was pretty big and not as overlooked as you said, because she was in EVERYTHING which kinda proves how untrue that is.
Kirsten and Natalie Portman has the most amazing career in cinema industry, they just not only brilliant and so talented, but also having a great emotional contention is mostly the key to success
I could listen to her talk about acting for hours. She is so sensitive, considered and insightful, and clearly takes such pride in her work. Like many people here, I feel like I've grown up watching her on film and I will basically watch anything she ever does. A true actor and a brilliant professional. Thank you for all of your incredible storytelling Kirsten!
*EVERYONE went on about Leo not having an Oscar and rightly so, but Kirsten hasn’t really had ANY AWARDS and she’s an amazing actress. She’s not just an amazing actress, she’s an amazing CHILD actress to adult actress. The fact that she could act so well and show so many emotions in her face and tone etc just shows how great she is. I just hope she does an Oscar worthy movie too, soon, and wins in. She deserves it*
She is truly awesome, talented and someone I truly admire. For her to be in the business so young and into adulthood and not have one negative story about her. Kudos to both her and her parents. Her performance in interview with a vampire is truly something . Especially when she calls Lestat the father of all lies.
Melancholia is one of the most intimate, operatic films ever made. Just incredibly emotional and smart, big and small. Trier peak, Dunst's performance is one for the ages.
I'm so glad Kirsten was protected there are so many child actors that had parents just throw them in then leave. Her mom cared and its really amazing I wish they all had the same.
I grew up on Kirsten’s movies and have followed her entire career. So many great films and so many great performances. Her body of work really runs the gamut and is evidence of how versatile and talented she is.
@@frankknudsen8803LMAO WHAT? If anything Peter Parker is the one who comes across as borderline bipolar and unreliable (if you view it from anyone else’s perspective) constantly playing with her feelings every time he gets.
@@ZodsSnappedNeck its a mix of both, obviously the writers wrote her a bit one dimensionally throughout the series, she basically hopped from Flash to Harry to Peter to John to Peter then back to Harry then back to Peter again. But yeah aside from us the audience knowing that Peter is Spiderman i can definitely see his character coming off as unreliable.
@@ZodsSnappedNeckPeter made it clear to her he didn’t want a relationship with her, and then she kept flirting with him at the beginning of spider man 2, and after she’s like “oh yeh I have a boyfriend now too lol” and she gets engaged to him just to make Peter Jealous, she didn’t even want to marry him. She also made her boyfriend kiss her in the upside down position to compare it to kissing spider man 😂😂😂
Are you joking? She has a smoker's voice, which is a sad thing. Next stop - Lucille Ball voice, if she doesn't quit. I read she had quit, so I hope so. That being said, I think she's a great actress and she's been in a ton of hits. You don't usually keep getting work if you're not good at your craft. She also seems like a lovely person, from this interview, and I hope to see her in many more quality films.
A lot of actors project a different voice when acting. Elle Fanning or Anya Taylor Joy for example. When they speak normal, they are nothing like the characters they play.
She’s so charming. I love the way she slows down to articulate what she loves and respects about the films and the people she worked with. There’s just something very lovely and elegant about how intentionally she chooses her words
Truly an iconic actress, has done many different types of roles, has had a long career. Its so easy to forget all shes done and how well shes done it because she is so unproblematic and not in your face 24/7 but she deserves so much more recognition.
I saw Kirsten in Phoenix years ago. I actually recognized her Mom & opened the door for her, looked at the car she went to, & Kirsten was driving. The TV gives her absolutely no justice - she is the most beautiful person I've ever seen. I am so happy to see her in any movie because she is so talented.
hearing about her experiences doing films during her early years really makes a great example of why/how she is so successful as an adult today. sounds like the crew, directors, and actors always took good care of her on set. tom and brad treating her like a little sister, the acting coach training in such a professional way, and of course.. no better director than sofia to guide her.
Her being in Interview, Little Women and Jumanji marked my teenage years, she's incredible. I love how she can do an understated drama, weird concept movies, teenage comedies and action films, she's has an incredible range and feels like a different person in every role, and starting so young!
The biggest compliment I could give Kirsten is how completely grounded and normal she is considering her international fame and fortune. Her parents have done a fantastic job and should be very proud. Now please can we have you as the lead in the next TV show phenomenon 👏🏼
I am so glad she never gave up acting. Even when she was very depressed. I can’t even begin to choose my favourite role by her. They’re all so magical! 🪄
@@CrisOnTheInternet what type of movies? Adventure? Horror? Mistery? Spy thrillers? Space opera? I'm tired of people thinking superhero is a genre only because it's connected with comics when those type of movies have more diversity in subjects, castings, actors and stories than most films.
@@youredelicious9945 but that's literally the name of the genre "superhero" and that doesn't mean that they have to come from a comic. Genre and topics developed in a movie are different things, I didn't even implied anything negative, just that those movies aren't the ones I watch.
She's so articulate and beautiful. I love that she can look back and still have such insightful and positive things to say about her cast and crew. She has always been a celebrity stand out, and always appeared to have such a level head. I also forgot how much I loved her in Drop Dead Gorgeous 😂 that was such a crazy movie and she just just a star.
@chelsear112 the main point of that movie is to make you feel the feeling of melancholia and depression. This understanding actually made it so much better second time I watched it actually understand and make a note of how it makes you feel.
She has always killed it. Also, her line "He's been chasing us since Woodhaven Blvd."! in Spider-Man, got a full standing ovation from my theater, which was on Woodhaven Blvd., in Queens.
29 minutes of my time extremely well spent! Bravo BGQ and Kirsten 👏 Her professionalism, discernment, and dedication to craft is inspirational. A total peach of a human, and probably tons of fun. She's been a well-deserved magnet for good things. Love that she relished her Fargo role as much as I did ✨ _Had no idea_ her and Jesse became a couple during that, wow lol. Look up her filmography 😳 Didn't realize her body of work was so huge (at only 42!) and packed full of aces I've missed. I srsly need to get crackin.
One of the best modern filmographies. The Coppola films, Melancholia, Spiderman, the best season of Fargo and her recent films. Always something interesting going on.
This video just made me realise how much work she’s put into her craft and the industry basically almost her whole entire life … Huge respect to her ❤️
It's so refreshing to see a child star who was protected. ❤❤ I always like Kirsten Dunst as we are the same age and she was in some of my favorite movies growing up. This was a cool interview.
Great films, I’m so glad these last few years people have given her more recognition, especially her Coppola work. Also thank you GQ for including my favorite mockumentary, drop dead gorgeous!
There is no actress like her, love all her films too she plays such interesting and deep characters that you continue to think about and try to understand. Still looks amazing too!
She doesn't get enough credit for helping define the early 2000s with some of the movies she was in
She is my 2000s muse
yes she's a pop culture icon
Kirsten is trans.
she was the entire late 90s and early 00s
and she was hot!
"Your brother can't find his toy and you know where it is but you won't tell him" is absolutely brilliant actor coaching
Her career is so wild. I can't believe how many iconic roles she's had.
They didn't even mention her early roles in Interview with the Vampire (1994) and Jumanji (1995).
They mentioned interview w a vampire
@@lucone2937you clearly didn’t watch the full video
All great rolls.
@@lucone2937 Ikr? I don't even know these other movies they mentioned, besides Civil War
This is what acting interviews are meant to be. About the process. The art. Yes.
It's really nice to hear that Kirsten wasn't exposed to inappropriate ideas unnecessarily while filming Interview. What a fantastic careers. We are lucky to have had her talent.
Was thinking the same thing. If only all child actors were protected that way.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@allisonchainz82lol the parents are to blame.
The same thing can be said about average kids as well.
Anyone else thinking Spider Gwen variant?
she was exploited to be viewed in a sexual way as a child tho, so is it really that nice?
The way she comes across in this interview is so relaxed and natural. I feel like we're two parents at our kids' baseball game and we're sitting in the stands talking about work and she just happens to have an exponentially more interesting job than me.
Well said. I agree completely.

Kirsten Dunst is criminally underrated. She can do literally any genre and any role. Give her her flowers, and she needs an oscar.
I think she got Best Supporting Actress for Interview With A Vampire

She does have veneers but not on every tooth
@@thehapagirl92 they look very good! Still natural looking.

Her IMDb credits are ICONIC! She has incredible range and taste in choosing which projects to work on
Her catalog of work is amazing! 👏
This was so interesting and oddly calming. The range of her work is incredible, camp cult classics and Oscar winning masterpieces.
Who’ else remembers her in jumanji
And Small Soldiers.
Such a good movie too.
And Mona Lisa Smile
First time I saw 👀 her back in Abuja Nigeria 🇳🇬 in 🏫 1995😅
The first film I would've seen her in and I didn't even realise it was her, can't believe they skipped it. Was the only film I came here to see her talk about.
I can't believe she didn't talk about Toy soldiers , does she not realize how iconic she was for 8 year old me 😭 I love her forever
Or jumanji 😖
I was gonna post this. Toy Soldiers is a very underrated film. I love it and what an all star cast.
I think you mean Small Soldiers? Unfortunately it wasn't that big of a movie, but no idea why they left out Jumanji !!!
Both films of “Jumanji” and “Toy Soldiers” weren’t that successful for a mention: they’re both Cult Classics.
@@dogewood5499Jumanji was a massive success.
She was overlooked for so long, even with that incredible filmography under her belt. I have a feeling she's now finally entering a period, post-ingenue, where she'll be getting her proper dues.

Kirsten saying "Not" is the most 90's thing I've heard since Nirvana. It's a small role but Eternal Sunshine is a favorite movie of mine.
It's a small but a big role. I love that movie!
Xennials 1977-1983 are underrated
Love how shes not only very talented with her craft BUT also has remained very humble throughout her career.
I love the way she talks about all of her projects, it makes me want to go back and rewatch everything she’s done. A true artist of her craft ❤
I'm glad to hear she was protected when she was little
No your not
'Interview' really was one of the best child actor performances ever.
It's a crime that she didn't win an Oscar for 'Melancholia'; it's one of the most impactful performances in cinema.
Absolutely agree. Her performance in Melancholia is unbelievable.
Yes!
‘This food tastes like ash..!!!’ 💔
Yes !
It is absolutely my favorite Lars Von Trier film. SO GOOD.
Wow! No Mona Lisa's Smile! That movie is so epic!
Thank you! I was thinking the exact same thing.
Loved her in that role. And so many others I haven't seen
I also loved her in lesser known devils arithmetic
Yeah, was wondering why this movie didn't make to the list. Would've like to hear how it was working with that cast.
she’s so iconic in everything she’s been in, the career she’s had is unmatched.
She’s a real one. She was in so many formative movies for us Millennials. She’s aging with us. Amazing actress.
Kirsten and Natalie Portman has the most amazing career in cinema industry, they just not only brilliant and so talented, but also having a great emotional contention is mostly the key to success
I had the biggest crush on both of them!!!
And what an impressive filmography both of them had built over the years!
The most normal, down to earth actor. Watching her here, makes me realize how few interviews I've seen of hers.
I always liked Kirsten, but I never thought she was this cool as a person, she seems really down to earth.
100% agree!

Such an underrated movie and performance!
I have found my people in this comment! Favourite film of hers and DEFINITELY underrated!!
The range! You gotta respect how vast her film trajectory has been, truly admirable.
Her performance in melancholia is so overlooked. She deserves at least an Oscar nomination for that. Also, crazy beautiful was so underrated

I saw Kirsten in Phoenix years ago. I actually recognized her Mom & opened the door for her, looked at the car she went to, & Kirsten was driving. The TV gives her absolutely no justice - she is the most beautiful person I've ever seen. I am so happy to see her in any movie because she is so talented.
hearing about her experiences doing films during her early years really makes a great example of why/how she is so successful as an adult today. sounds like the crew, directors, and actors always took good care of her on set. tom and brad treating her like a little sister, the acting coach training in such a professional way, and of course.. no better director than sofia to guide her.
How not to love Kiki? Seriously, she's A+ in every department. It feels special to have someone like her around.
I could listen to her talk about anything. She is an extraordinary person. Love this!
I love her. Such an underrated actor.
I'm not sure kirsten dunst knows how much the worlds audience will always love her❤
I have idolised Kirsten Dunst for twenty years and I could not love her as an actor more if I tried. She’s so wonderful.
She seems like a real kindhearted person. Very beautiful too.
Like Jodi Foster, she's the rare child actor whose life didn't fall apart.
Christian Bale too & he was in “Little women” with Kirstin😊
Natalie Portman!
We don't really know who these people are behind closed doors.
Diane Lane
Joseph Gordon Levitt
Scarlett Johansson
Cynthia Nixon
There are actually some really good ones who made it somehow.
Winona Ryder and Drew Barrymore also come to mind…
What a wonderful and thoughtful piece! She's incredibly engaging to watch and listen to. Glad to see her getting props where props are due!
Her being in Interview, Little Women and Jumanji marked my teenage years, she's incredible. I love how she can do an understated drama, weird concept movies, teenage comedies and action films, she's has an incredible range and feels like a different person in every role, and starting so young!
The biggest compliment I could give Kirsten is how completely grounded and normal she is considering her international fame and fortune. Her parents have done a fantastic job and should be very proud. Now please can we have you as the lead in the next TV show phenomenon 👏🏼
I am so glad she never gave up acting. Even when she was very depressed. I can’t even begin to choose my favourite role by her. They’re all so magical! 🪄
I wish she had space to cover Mona Lisa Smile. It’s one of my faves!
So true, going to watch that again!
Great film & I love her in it
I would die to see Tobey and Kirsten acting together again 😭
All MJs and their spidies
@@Anonymouseduck Why did I picture a multiverse movie? I don't even watch that type of movies lol
@@CrisOnTheInternet what type of movies? Adventure? Horror? Mistery? Spy thrillers? Space opera? I'm tired of people thinking superhero is a genre only because it's connected with comics when those type of movies have more diversity in subjects, castings, actors and stories than most films.
@@youredelicious9945 but that's literally the name of the genre "superhero" and that doesn't mean that they have to come from a comic. Genre and topics developed in a movie are different things, I didn't even implied anything negative, just that those movies aren't the ones I watch.
saaame
Her work catalogue is so good, one of my favorite actresses of this generation.
I've followed her career my entire life. I will watch anything and everything she does. Kirsten Dunst NEVER misses.
I agree 👍 ❤
This was incredible to see. I love the way she describes her experiences!!
Kirsten body of work is UNBELIEVABLE
i love how she seems so proud of her roles. shes very down to earth
Yes! I feel like nobody ever asks her about Drop Dead Gorgeous. I miss seeing her in comedies, but she's always great.
Just awesome. Thanks for all your great performances, Kirsten.
genuinely one of the best actors working.. and she is so humble and gracious and kind.
I feel like she's so grounded. She also looks the same over the years which is very refreshing
Thank you for acknowledging Drop Dead Gorgeous but that segment alone should've been 29 min lol
Agreed!
or cut...to talk about Jumanji or Small Soldiers
Yes! I was so glad to see it included, love that movie so much!!
DDG is criminally underrated
Yes!! DDG is a cult classic!
Interview w the vampire: the last era of incredible production making is so true and we as an audience can see the difference too
She played a big part of my childhood from Jumanji,Small Soliders,Tower Of Terror and Spiderman.
One of my favourite actresses.
yesss small soldiers, thats when i fell in love with her
And bring it on.
She's so articulate and beautiful. I love that she can look back and still have such insightful and positive things to say about her cast and crew. She has always been a celebrity stand out, and always appeared to have such a level head.
I also forgot how much I loved her in Drop Dead Gorgeous 😂 that was such a crazy movie and she just just a star.
She was so amazing in Melancholia, i can't get over this movie it was life changing for me
I just didn't get it ugh
@chelsear112 the main point of that movie is to make you feel the feeling of melancholia and depression. This understanding actually made it so much better second time I watched it actually understand and make a note of how it makes you feel.
Its the worst movie I have ever watched. I understand nothing
She has always killed it. Also, her line "He's been chasing us since Woodhaven Blvd."! in Spider-Man, got a full standing ovation from my theater, which was on Woodhaven Blvd., in Queens.
Hope to see her again in Spider-Man 💙4❤
The lack of Jumanji is alarming. Loved that movie.
Yes! Where’s Jumanji?
29 minutes of my time extremely well spent! Bravo BGQ and Kirsten 👏 Her professionalism, discernment, and dedication to craft is inspirational. A total peach of a human, and probably tons of fun. She's been a well-deserved magnet for good things. Love that she relished her Fargo role as much as I did ✨ _Had no idea_ her and Jesse became a couple during that, wow lol.
Look up her filmography 😳 Didn't realize her body of work was so huge (at only 42!) and packed full of aces I've missed. I srsly need to get crackin.
One of the best modern filmographies. The Coppola films, Melancholia, Spiderman, the best season of Fargo and her recent films. Always something interesting going on.
This video just made me realise how much work she’s put into her craft and the industry basically almost her whole entire life … Huge respect to her ❤️
It's interesting how she talks about being uncertain and uncomfortable yet she usually exudes such confidence in her roles.
Acting
It's so refreshing to see a child star who was protected. ❤❤ I always like Kirsten Dunst as we are the same age and she was in some of my favorite movies growing up. This was a cool interview.
Great films, I’m so glad these last few years people have given her more recognition, especially her Coppola work. Also thank you GQ for including my favorite mockumentary, drop dead gorgeous!
There is no actress like her, love all her films too she plays such interesting and deep characters that you continue to think about and try to understand. Still looks amazing too!
I never realized how many roles I’ve seen with her! This interview was amazing I am so glad to hear she loved playing Peggy!
Well spoken, and it's so refreshing to see an actress love and have a passion for what they do!
