Guardian recently caught up with Kirsten Dunst, who makes her television debut playing Peggy Blomquist in season 2 of Fargo.

The actress was all appreciation for the medium of television today and how it might very well be trumping the Hollywood blockbuster in terms of creativity. Dunst also compared the experiences of working in each realm, revealing that television was much tougher on her than films were -- she primarily attributes that to the fact that she has to learn way more lines in much lesser time.

"Doing a television show is much, much harder work than film, because you're doing 10 pages a day. You don't get that many takes," she said. "And my character does not stop talking."

She added about how exhausting the process can get for her: "doing it a bunch of times the night before, right before bed... and then you sleep and it's like: 'Oh my God, it's all in my brain.' It's amazing!"

Dunst also believes that television is definitely taking over and that people watched more TV over film.

"People don't go to the cinema unless it's an event any more," she said. "So the movie industry is in a weird place, for sure, and the creative people are blossoming on television."

"There are just too many movies being made, I think. So many of them get lost. Too many cooks in the kitchen - the studio's editing it, the producers are editing it, the director's editing, too. But everyone has their hand in it, so whose movie is it at the end of the day?" she added.

Season 2 of Fargo will premiere on Oct. 19 on FX.
