"Spider-Man" actress Kirsten Dunst opened up about supporting whatever career path her two children may follow to People while attending the New York Film Festival premiere of "The Power Of The Dog."

Dunst is a proud mother to her two young sons, Ennis, three years old, and James, four months old, who she shares with her fiance of three years and "Other People" actor, Jesse Plemons. The pair got engaged in 2017.

Her latest project is a family affair as she stars in the movie alongside her husband. The couple play married couple Rose and George, who George's brother, Phil Burbank, torments.

With Plemons by Dunst's side during filming, it is no surprise that their children became the hot topic during an interview with People Magazine at the premiere. Dunst shared that she will always support her children:

Dunst touched on the development of her and Plemons's relationship while at the premiere for their newest movie. She revealed that they had started as friends and creative partners first.
