The actress opens up about the long road to starring in Showtime's pitch-black comedy, what's coming up in season two and why she picks projects based on who's directing them:"There are just so many good scripts that aren't well made."Krystal Stubbs — the central character played by Kirsten Dunst — tells her husband, Travis , "I won't be poor again."
"She's like a survivalist," says Dunst, who is also an executive producer. "She has a daughter to take care of, so she'll do whatever she can not to put her in that position that she was in as a kid. So to me this really is a story about a single mother." Dunst, 37, spoke withs long road to Showtime, what drew her to the character and how she chooses material.
It sat at AMC for a while. I think they changed hands. They were going in a new direction. So when it finally did find a home [at YouTube Premium], it was kind of great because they let us do whatever we wanted, which is really nice that we weren't in a place where everything was so nitpicked. And then when Showtime picked it up, I was so thankful because it's a platform that people have, and I like that it comes out once a week.
I feel like she doesn't want to be defeated, and she knows her value more than the people who are talking to her sometimes. To reach her full potential, she has to step on people, you know? The marketing of the show sold it as more of a comedy, but there are some pretty dark moments in it as well. It's an interesting show in that way. That's why I was drawn to it. You feel for these people, but they are also really weird, interesting people to watch.
