The Hollywood Reporter reports that Kirsten Dunst will reunite with Michel Gondry ("Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind") in "Be Kind Rewind." Jack Black is headlining the feature.

Written by Gondry, the comedy follows a junkyard worker (Black) who attempts to sabotage a power plant that he believes is melting his brain. His plan goes wrong, however, and causes a magnetic field that destroys all the video tapes in his best friend's video store. Fearing that the store will lose its only customer - an elderly lady - they attempt to refilm all the movies she rent with on their own with a video camera.
