The most notable addition to join Dune 3’s cast is Robert Pattinson, who takes on the role of the film’s menacing villain, a face dancer named Scytale.
The actor spoke about his experiences working on the set of Dune 3 and said, “It’s going to be a masterpiece. Because Denis (Villeneuve) really wants go farther and farther from the last movie. It’s like what he did with the second movie compared to the first one.” He further added that the third Dune movie will have a “conclusion like nobody suspected.” Bardem gave a message to the readers of the books and said, “Those who have read the book know the ‘Messiah’ book, but it’s beyond that. It’s going to be a feast. It’s going to be something extraordinary.”
Previously, while talking to Vanity Fair in 2024, Villeneuve said that the franchise doesn’t feel like a trilogy. He stated that the upcoming sequel will have its “own identity” and “feel different” from the previous movies.
