Kirsten Dunst tells Variety that she still hates auditions and considers them “the most stressful thing to me on planet Earth.”
Most people are first became familiar with Dunst after her appearance in the 1994 hit movie Interview with the Vampire, but Dunst reveals that she wouldn't have gotten the role if it wasn't for her acting coach making her re-do the audition. She explains:
“I was with my coach. He was outside of the room. He listened on the door to hear, like, what I was doing. And he knows I didn't nail it. And I walked out, and he was like, ‘No, you go back in there.' He's like, ‘Apologize to the casting director.' He's like, ‘She didn't do what she can do.'”
Dunst explains that she still gets nervous when she has to do an audition, and the roles she doesn't get still bother her. In fact, she explains having a long acting resume and not landing a role haunts her. “When I used to audition a lot I had little things I would do, like get up, turn around — like, have little things that people would remember you by. Now, it's like I don't have that trick bag and if I don't get it, I'll feel like an extra failure because I have a body of work.”
Kirsten Dunst is human just like everyone else.
