Kirsten Dunst has revealed that she was scared about working with director Lars Von Trier.
The actress teams up with the filmmaker on Melancholia and she admits that he was not what she was expecting.
Speaking to Virgin Media the actress said: "I was scared about working with Lars because everyone made such a big deal about how he tortures actresses.
"When I first got to know him I was shocked by the things he would say, but you don't make the movies he makes with a PC personality.
"But what I found was a really sensitive, funny and kind director who was emotionally intuitive. He loves women."
And Melancholia marked her return of Dunst as she went on to win the Cannes Film Festival Award for Best Actress for her performance in the movie.
And the actress has a whole host of projects in the pipeline including Charm, Upside Down and On the Road.
Melancholia is out on DVD & Blu-Ray now.
