Kirsten Dunst To Go On The Road

Joining Kristen Stewart, Garrett Hedlund and Sam Riley for Kerouac epic Friday, May 14th 2010 | 10:01:39

Jack Kerouac's seminal American tale On The Road is really making tracks now, as yet another star joins the cast, in the shape of Spidey-lover Kirsten Dunst.

Ol' Snaggle Tooth is the latest announcement, after Tron Legacy's Garrett Hedlund, serious Brit Sam Riley and fellow curl-lipped vampire-lover Kristen Stewart were announced for Walter Salles' adaptation of the 1957 beat novel.

While rising Hollywood property Russell Brand followed the trail of Kerouac's journey across America in his documentary Russell Brand On The Road a couple of years ago, this film is the first attempt at dramatising the diary of the legendary writer on his travels with friend Neal Cassady.

But the movie is in good hands, as the team behind The Motorcycle Diaries are producing it - along with an accompanying documentary following Salles' research into the subject - called In Search Of The Road.

So is Kirsten Dunst a welcome addition to this low-key cast?
