When she first laid eyes on the script for Civil War, she was hesitant, but then she read the script and, not having done anything like it before, she signed right up for active duty.
Love Story Behind Real-life Couple
When Plemons was a last-minute addition to the production, there was no chance that having this real-life couple on set would add any extra drama.
Falling in Love Creatively
“Because we fell in love on a set, we fell in love creatively first,” Dunst said. “I think we’ll always come back to that, in a very not-involving-our-real-life way. And also, listen, we don’t talk to each other on set. I left him alone, he left me alone.”
But only during working hours.
Trusting Each Other
“I love working with him,” Dunst added. “What’s nice is that we trust each other so much. He sent me a scene last night of this miniseries he’s working on to get my opinion. If I’m having a hard time deciding on something, I’ll have him read it. I trust his opinion more than anyone, and he cares about me more than anyone.”
Common Dislikes
Maybe even more importantly, she noted, “We hate the same things.”
That being said, Dunst was even more blown away by his chilling performance “’cause he is the kindest person,” she gushed on Late Night With Seth Meyers in April. “He’s just a really fantastic actor.”
Impressive Performance
