The 29-year-old actress' next career ambition is to play a German in order to pay tribute to her roots, reported Contactmusic. "I really want to do a film in another language.

My dad's from Germany, so it'd be really cool to do a film in German. I'm not quite fluent, but I can get there. And my accent's pretty good. I wouldn't feel too out of my element," Dunst said.

The 29-year-old actress feels lucky as she is able to be selective about her roles and says her main consideration is who is creating the project.

"I feel like everyone directs their own career according to their taste, what they migrate to emotionally and what kind of artists they want to work with.

And I'm lucky enough to be in a position where I can wait six months for a project that really interests me. "The filmmaker is really important to me: it could be their first film, it's not just about their reputation, but I have to really believe in them.

In a way, to me, even 'Spider-Man' was almost like an independent film on a very large scale, because Sam Raimi has such an independent spirit," she said.
