Kirsten Dunst (Spider-Man) is set to star in Warner Bros’ Midnight Special, a sci-fi drama written and directed by Jeff Nichols (Mud) that finds a father and his eight-year-old son on the run when they discover that the boy has special powers.

Dunst joins a cast that includes Michael Shannon (Man of Steel) and Joel Edgerton (The Thing). Details over the role she plays remain under wraps, but Deadline reports the part as being that of female lead.

Dunst is coming off Lars Von Trier’s apocalyptic thriller Melancholia and Juan Diego Solanas’ sci-fi romancer Upside Down. Her genre creds include Sam Raimi’s Spider-Man trilogy, The Crow: Salvation, Joe Johnston’s Jumanji and Neil Jordan’s Interview with the Vampire, in which she played child vamp Claudia.
