“There's people that you meet that are little soul mates in life, and she's just like a sister to me,” Dunst said.

And the 35-year-old actress previously referred to herself and Fanning as kindred spirits.

When asked how she and Fanning are different, she said, “There's definitely a kindred spirit, soul-mate thing that I feel with Elle. But Elle is more confident than I was at 19. Maybe I had more of a people-pleasing thing. Maybe that was the way I grew up, I really don't know.”
