Kirsten Dunst walks the carpet at the premiere of her new Showtime series On Becoming a A God in Central Florida on Tuesday night (August 20) at the London Hotel in West Hollywood, Calif.

The 37-year-old actress was joined at the event by her co-stars Beth Ditto, Mel Rodriguez, Usman Ally, Julie Benz, Melissa De Sousa, Sharon Lawrence, and Josh Fadem.

Kirsten opened up at the premiere about the eclectic costumes she wears in the series.

“The worse it got, the better it was,” she told Variety. “I’d just take [the braces] off, and there would be a line of saliva coming off. They’re kind of nauseating to wear, so I was just grossing everyone out.”

The first season of On Becoming a God in Central Florida premieres this Sunday on Showtime, but you can watch the first two episodes now.

FYI: Kirsten is wearing a The Vampire’s Wife dress.

She was also joined by her co-stars Mel Rodriguez, Beth Ditto and Theodore Pellerin, as well as co-creator Matt Lutsky and executive producers Esta Spalding and Robert Funke.

The dark comedy is set in Orlando in the early 1990s. It follows a minimum-wage-earning water park employee who will eventually scheme her way to the top of Founders American Merchandise, a cultish pyramid scheme that drives her family to ruin.

“These kinds of schemes are all about people being asked to monetize their relationship. What’s heartbreaking is not only the debt and the loss…The losses become familial as well…Everyone on this show wants something more in their life but there is no way they could do that making minimum wage in 1992. People are trying to be happy in their daily lives and being preyed upon,” Esta said during the panel.

Kirsten Dunst is starring in the upcoming Showtime series On Becoming a God in Central Florida and the first poster and trailer have arrived!

The 37-year-old actress is seen wearing braces on the poster for the show, which is a story about the cult of free enterprise and one woman’s relentless pursuit of the American Dream.

Set in a small Orlando-adjacent town in 1992, the series follows Krystal Stubbs (Dunst), a minimum-wage water park employee who lies, schemes and cons her way up the ranks of Founders American Merchandise (FAM) — the cultish, flag-waving, multibillion-dollar pyramid scheme that drove her to ruin in the first place, run by the powerful Obie Garbeau II (Ted Levine). Determined to make a better life for herself, Krystal dives deep into FAM and develops a tangled relationship with FAM’s most loyal and fanatical follower Cody (Theodore Pellerin), until her business begins to affect those closest to her, including Ernie (Mel Rodriguez), her affable water park boss, and his FAM-skeptic wife Bets (Beth Ditto).

Alexander Skarsgard and Mary Steenburgen also star in the 10-episode dark comedy series. The first episode airs on Sunday, August 25.
