Kirsten Dunst says that she still gets a Christmas cake every year from Interview With The Vampire co-star Tom Cruise — 30 years after starring together in the gothic horror film.

Cruise, 61, is famous for sending a delicious white chocolate coconut bundt cake to his A-list pals during the holiday season.

‘Still getting that cake,’ Dunst, 41, told Entertainment Tonight on Thursday while promoting her new film Civil War.

She also revealed that her husband Jesse Plemons, who starred alongside Cruise in 2017’s American Made, also receives a cake.

‘Jesse gets the cakes so we double up on our cakes.’

Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt star in ‘Interview With The Vampire’

Cruise has the Christmas cakes made and delivered by Doan’s Bakery, a family-owned bakery in Woodland Hills, California.

He reportedly sends the holiday confections to a long list of celebrity friends, including former co-stars like Top Gun: Maverick’s Glen Powell and War Of The Worlds’ Dakota Fanning.

Jon Hamm, Graham Norton, Rosie O’Donnell and Angela Bassett have also made it onto Cruise’s coveted ‘cake list.’

Dunst was 11-years-old when she starred as Claudia, a young vampire who is forced to grow in a child’s body, alongside Cruise, Brad Pitt, Christian Slater, Antonio Banderas and Thandiwe Newton in 1994’s Interview With The Vampire. It was her breakout role.

Adapted from the 1976 novel by author Anne Rice, Interview With The Vampire was a box office hit following its release on Veteran’s Day in November 1994.

The film, directed by Neil Jordan, raked in a worldwide gross of $224million, from an estimated budget of $60million.

During Thursday’s sit-down with ET, Dunst said she looks back on that film shoot fondly.

‘When I think back I have fond memories. It was a production like nothing I have experienced to this day. The costumes and the sets. It changed the course of my life,’ Dunst explained.

Kirsten Dunst and Jesse Plemons arrive at the 2024 Oscars

She’s made several references to her time filming Interview With The Vampire as well as her working relationships with Cruise and Pitt.

Last week on Jimmy Kimmel Live, the Marie Antoinette star revealed that Cruise looked out for her as a child actress and how he ‘put a Christmas tree in my dressing room.’

Cruise, who played immortal vampire Lestat de Lioncourt in the film, surprised Kirsten with the thoughtful holiday gift as they filmed on location at Buckinghamshire’s Pinewood Studios.

Dunst gushed about Pitt in a recent interview with The Telegraph.

She told the outlet that the Oscar-winner ‘was like an older brother’ while filming – despite her previous criticism of a ‘gross’ scene in which the significantly older star, who was 30-years-old when he accepted the lead as enigmatic vampire Louis de Pointe du Lac, kisses a then-11-year-old Dunst.

Dunst recalled being ‘treated like a princess’ by her male co-stars – most notably Pitt.

‘Yes, it was a virtually all-male set, but everyone was very gentle and kind, and nothing ever felt weird. Brad was like an older brother to me.’

Speaking to ET shortly after the film’s 1994 release, Dunst admitted that she ‘hated [the Pitt kiss] so much’ because it was ‘kind of like kissing your brother.’

Dunst, who was 12 at the time, acknowledged that it was ‘weird’ for her to be kissing ‘an older guy’ on the lips.

That same year she touched on the controversial scene again while promoting Little Women with co-star Samantha Mathis, telling interviewers: ‘I love Brad, he’s so nice … it was just, like, it feels awkward.

‘I mean, I’m 12. And he’s, like, 31, and it’s like, he’s a man. So why would I enjoy kissing him?’

Mathis, who was 24 at the time, cut in to admit she wouldn’t turn down a kiss with the heartthrob, adding: ‘Maybe you’re not into kissing boys yet, so I can relate.’

Replying to the quip, an unimpressed Dunst shot back: ‘Well, especially because Brad is 31. I mean, he’s not exactly a boy.’

During a later appearance on Conan in 2014, she added: ‘I thought it was disgusting. I was 11, it would’ve been weird if I was like ‘this is amazing.”

In 2021 she told Vanity Fair that kissing Pitt and biting the neck of a co-star who was apparently sweating profusely at the time were her least favourite memories of the shoot.

‘That was the worst thing I did and also having obviously to kiss Brad Pitt at that point,’ she said.

‘I was a little girl and he was like a brother to me and it was very weird even though it was a peck. I was very not into it.’
