Though his relationship with Dunst garners attention, Plemons’ talent as an actor started long before they met.

Raised in Mart, a small town outside Waco, Texas, Plemons began his career as a child actor. Best known for his roles in Game Night (2018), Battleship (2012), and Black Mass (2015), he achieved a career breakthrough with his supporting role as Landry Clarke in the NBC drama series Friday Night Lights (2006–11).

Jesse measures 5′ 10″ (1.78 m), the same height as Matt Damon. Kirsten Dunst is reportedly 5′ 7″ (1.70 m).

While appearing on Jimmy Kimmel Live earlier in the same month, Dunst confirmed that she’s not yet married despite rumors to the contrary. “[He’s my] fiancé, we’re not married yet,” she told the television host.

The pair share two sons: Ennis Howard Plemons, born on May 3, 2018, in Santa Monica, California, and James Robert Plemons, born in 2021.

“It’s like an old cowboy name. … We found it online. You know, on those baby websites where you just keep scrolling. We were like, ‘We like that. It sounds cool,’” the Jumanji actress told Jimmy Kimmel about her son’s name in September 2019.

“I know what Ennis will be called,” the actress added about her son Ennis Howard Plemons. “Come on, you just stick a P in front of it. There’s also anus. That’s not a great one.”

Wearing a floral Prada dress with a bold brown and green bloom print, she showed off her feet in black heels and wore her hair in a low ponytail.

The Spotless Mind actress talked about getting her star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, having a baby, breastfeeding, coming up with her son’s name, working with George Clooney, and her new show “On Becoming a God in Central Florida.”
