‘Kinds of Kindness’ Star Jesse Plemons Explains Why He Missed Accepting Cannes Best Actor Prize and What He Loves About Working With Yorgos Lanthimos
Jesse Plemons, Willem Dafoe and Hong Chau discuss joining the star-studded ensemble for 'Kinds of Kindness,' Yorgos Lanthimos' latest trippy tale.
“I’ve been working, and I also … if I have the option not to watch something I’m in, I usually, slowly sneak out,” the actor told Variety, sitting down at the swanky Carlton Hotel just hours before the Searchlight Pictures film’s world premiere a few hundred yards down the Croisette. Plemons had been a fan of Lanthimos since his friend Caleb Landry Jones told him to watch the Greek director’s breakthrough film, 2009’s “Dogtooth,” which won the Un Certain Regard prize at Cannes. Following the premiere, he’d flown from France to New York to wrap up filming the Netflix miniseries “Zero Day,” where he stars opposite Robert De Niro, and was en route home to L.A. to see his wife Kirsten Dunst and their kids, sons Ennis and James, while the awards were being presented.
