Working With Women Is “Very Simple”

Dunst caught up with Refinery29 while walking the carpet at the 50th Toronto International Film Festival for her latest film Roofman, alongside co-star Channing Tatum. The movie, which had its world premiere at the festival and is set to be released in theatres on October 10, follows the real-life story of Jeffrey Manchester (played by Tatum), a former US military veteran who was incarcerated for robbing a 45 McDonald’s in the mid-2000s. Now on the run after escaping from prison, Manchester holes up in a local Toys R’ Us for several months. Dunst plays Leigh, his blissfully unaware love interest and one of the store’s employees. The movie is already receiving praise for its “considerable star charm,” powered by the believable chemistry between Dunst and Tatum, who play two 40-something single parents trying to navigate the complexities of life and love amidst real-life pressures (with, you know, some added criminality on the side).
