Actress Kirsten Dunst has signed a deal to step behind the camera and direct her first movie.

The star will make a short film based on a ghost story sent to a women's magazine by a reader.

The 25-year-old says of the project, "They've given me carte blanche.

"I pick everyone I want to collaborate with.

"I've always been a fan of Roman Polanski and, you know, Repulsion with Catherine Deneuve and Rosemary's Baby. We just don't make movies like that anymore."
