She said simply:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"mb-4 border-l-2 pl-5 italic text-tertiary\">\n<div class=\"\">\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">It makes me so sad thinking about him.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">In the original <em>Jumanji<\/em>, a character played by Robin Williams is trapped in the titular game until he is released by two children who come across the board game years later. Dunst played one of the siblings who released the now grown Robin Williams.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">However, while thinking about Robin Williams might initially make Kirsten Dunst sad, she also said that watching him on the set of <em>Jumanji<\/em> had a particular impact on her as an actress. His generosity extended to giving her a valuable gift, but she says it was the way he treated everybody that she took as a significant lesson on how to behave on set. Dunst explained:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"mb-4 border-l-2 pl-5 italic text-tertiary\">\n<div class=\"\">\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">He was just like\u2026 He left such an impression on me with his grace and the way he treated everyone. And then, on top of it, he gave me my first computer? And he just was so generous with his spirit and everything. Again, what a lesson for me to learn at such a young age how to treat a crew. I mean, just a very respectful, beautiful human.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Celebrities are used to being the most important people in any room they\u2019re in, so how they treat those who are seen as less important is frequently judged. Kirsten Dunst said the way Williams treated the crew on <em>Jumanji<\/em> is how she learned that doing that was important.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Dunst&#8217;s comments about Robin Williams echo those of basically everybody else who ever worked with him.
