Robert Pattinson Confirms His Role in Dune 3: A Relaxing Experience
After months of speculation, Robert Pattinson has finally confirmed his involvement in the highly anticipated 'Dune: Part Three'. In an interview with IndieWire, Pattinson, who is promoting the new Lynne Ramsay film 'Die, My Love', revealed that he found the experience "so relaxing" due to the extreme heat in the desert, which made him feel like he "did not have a single functioning brain cell."
"It's actually really nice," Pattinson said. "When I was doing Dune, it was so hot in the desert that I just couldn't question anything. And it was so relaxing, like my brain wasn't operating, I did not have a single functioning brain cell. And I was just listening to Denis [Villeneuve] 'Whatever you want!'"
This revelation has left fans intrigued, as Pattinson's involvement in the film has been a topic of much discussion. Earlier this year, rumors circulated that the 'Dune' movies were considering Pattinson for a role, and Deadline reported that he was being eyed for the part of Scytale, a villainous Face Dancer seeking to overthrow Paul Atreides. Despite the speculation, Pattinson remained tight-lipped about his character, only hinting at the intense heat and its impact on his performance.
The cast of 'Dune: Part Three' includes several holdovers from the previous films, such as Timothée Chalamet, Zendaya, Florence Pugh, Josh Brolin, Rebecca Ferguson, Anya Taylor-Joy, and Jason Momoa as Duncan Idaho. The film is set for release on December 18, 2026, and fans are eagerly awaiting the continuation of this epic sci-fi saga.
