The Oscar-winning actor for Elvis’ movie wowed his co-star.
Although it has been considered an “unsuitable” novel, the truth is that director Denis Villeneuve managed to impress the world with his adaptation of Dunes by Frank Herbert. Not only leaving critics speechless, but turning it into a worldwide box office hit that gave it wings to get Warners to agree to make a sequel.
A second part in which part of the original cast is repeated but to which new names have also been added. And of all, The one who most impressed actress Rebeca Ferguson, who was already in the first Dune movie, was Austin Butler, the Best Actor Oscar for the movie Elvis, who now plays Feyd-Rautha Harkonnen.
“I can’t wait to see Austin Butler on the big screen. What he has done is amazing. There are no words to describe it. The costumes that Jaqueline West designed and what Austin gave to the character… Christopher Walken is also amazing. Surreal”, confessed the actress in an interview with the web Collider.
Well, although the actress gives life to one of the main characters of the film, the mother of Paul Atreides, the protagonist played by Timothée Chalamet, the truth is that didn’t get a chance to see the tape “completed”, as it requires a lot of CGI makes the scenes shot not quite “real”, which is why Ferguson is eager to see it in theaters.
A starry cast
Despite Austin Butler being the actor who most recently won an Oscar for Baz Luhrmann’s Elvisis not the only big star of the second installment of Dune, Well, Denis Villeneuve has continued to expand his spectacular cast with additions such as Christopher Walken, who also has an Oscar under his belt for The Hunter.
But besides these two, a Dune: Part 2 was also joined by the wonderful Florence Pugh, the actress who continues to make headlines for being one of the great promises of Hollywood today. Without a doubt, the Canadian director spared no expense.
