Kirsten Dunst has revealed that she finds making action films boring and overly complicated.

The Spider-Man actress explained that the technical aspect of making big budget action scenes was dull and made the days drag during filming.

Dunst told Glamour: "Action movies really entail sitting in a trailer all day and not doing anything.

"You get there at six in the morning, you get all dressed up, put your make-up on and it seeps into your pores all day long and it's really boring."

She added: "I always have a lot of action in these films, and I don't like it. Everything that you see in the great action clips take weeks and months, each moment takes a day.

"It involves screaming, cars, heights, and it's very technical and complicated."
