Get ready for a thrilling update, movie buffs! Robert Pattinson's involvement in Dune 3 is now official! After a whirlwind of rumors and speculation, Pattinson has confirmed his participation in the highly anticipated sequel. But here's the twist: he describes the experience as 'so relaxing' due to his 'non-functioning brain cells.' Is this a clever marketing tactic or an honest admission?
In a recent interview with IndieWire, Pattinson, who's promoting the new Lynne Ramsay film, Die, My Love, revealed his unique take on the Dune set. He explained, 'When I was doing Dune, the desert heat was so intense that I couldn't question anything. It was like my brain shut down, and I just listened to Denis [Villeneuve] say, 'Whatever you want!' I found it incredibly relaxing.'
And this is the part most people miss: Pattinson plans to bring this relaxed approach to his future roles. Earlier this year, rumors swirled that Pattinson was being considered for the role of Scytale, a Face Dancer villain aiming to overthrow Paul Atreides. With his unique description of the experience, it leaves us wondering: was he truly playing a Face Dancer, or was it something even more intriguing?
Principal photography for Dune: Part Three kicked off in July, bringing together an impressive cast that includes Timothée Chalamet, Zendaya, Florence Pugh, Josh Brolin, Rebecca Ferguson, Anya Taylor-Joy, and Jason Momoa as Duncan Idaho.
Mark your calendars, as Dune: Part Three is set to hit theaters on December 18, 2026. Will you be there to witness the magic? And here's a thought-provoking question: Do you think Pattinson's relaxed approach will enhance his performance, or is it a cause for concern? Let's discuss in the comments!
