Latest Shocking Celebrity News: "Dune: Part 2" Teases a Bald, Villainous Austin Butler in the First Cinematic Trailer
"Dune" was one of the biggest films of 2021, and its upcoming sequel is expected to follow in its footsteps. Six months ahead of its theatrical debut, we finally know more about "Dune: Part Two" thanks to the trailer's release on May 3. Original stars like Timothée Chalamet and Zendaya, of course, return in it as Paul Atreides and Chani, respectively. But another familiar face pops up in the new clip: a bald Austin Butler, who we finally see in full as his character Feyd-Rautha Harkonnen.
New details about "Dune: Part Two" were teased at CinemaCon 2023 a month before the movie's preview dropped, particularly regarding Butler's role. The Oscar-nominated "Elvis" star was confirmed to be playing a villain (as his character is in the source material) by director Denis Villeneuve, who said, per Entertainment Weekly, "It was a privilege for me to bring Austin on board to ask him to play some kind of Olympic sword master, mixed with a psychotic serial killer. And I'm very proud of what he brought to the movie." The outlet also teased the first inkling of Butler's character being "hairless and pale," as were two members of House Harkonnen in the first film.
Other CinemaCon updates about "Dune: Part Two" included teased footage that showed Chalamet's Paul Atreides riding a sandworm for the first time (deemed a rite of passage) and a brief glimpse of Zendaya's Chani, though viewers will be pleased to hear she has much more screen time in this movie compared to the first installment.
"She's not just in dreams this time. . . . I only got a small time to learn who she was [in the first film], and now I feel like she's a part of myself," Zendaya said on stage at CinemaCon, according to EW. "Developing this love story where there's so much pain and stress and turmoil, and trying to find the balance of these two young people trying to grow up while there's so much pressure on top of that, being a warrior for your people . . . it was really, really special."
In February 2022, Villeneuve's adaptation of the 1965 novel "Dune" soared past $400 million in global sales, according to Deadline. The critical acclaim and widespread popularity of the film allowed for a second "Dune" to be greenlit back in October 2021, just days after the first movie's theatrical release. And now, we're inching closer and closer to its November premiere.
Fans of the film are eager to see where the sequel continues the story from its predecessor (which ended on a cliffhanger). Villeneuve told "ET Canada" last year: "I cannot say nothing about the movie - I don't like to talk about projects as I am doing them - but it's probably going to be the biggest challenge of my career."
In addition to Butler, Zendaya, and Chalamet, "Dune: Part Two"'s star-studded cast includes stars like Florence Pugh and Léa Seydoux; neither appeared in the original.
Ahead, read everything we know about the next "Dune" film so far, from the cast to the release date.
