He\u2019s done a Dune. In a recent interview with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.indiewire.com\/features\/interviews\/jennifer-lawrence-robert-pattinson-die-my-love-interview-1235158489\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">IndieWire<\/a>, Pattinson, who is promoting the new Lynne Ramsay movie, Die, My Love, says that not only is he in Dune, but he found the experience \u201cso relaxing\u201d because he \u201cdid not have a single functioning brain cell.\u201d Does this guy know how to sell a movie or what?<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s actually really nice,\u201d Pattinson said. \u201cWhen I was doing Dune it was so hot in the desert that I just couldn\u2019t question anything. And it was so relaxing, like my brain actually wasn\u2019t operating, I did not have a single functioning brain cell. And I was just listening to Denis [Villeneuve] \u2018Whatever you want!&#8217;\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI actually found it relaxing. Now I\u2019m taking that into other roles.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Earlier this year, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.avclub.com\/robert-pattinson-dune-3\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">rumors were flying from here to Arakis that the Dune movies were looking to spice things up with Pattinson<\/a>. Deadline reported that he was being eyed for Scytale, a villainous Face Dancer looking to overthrow Paul Atreides. If there was ever a way to describe Pattinson, it is \u201cFace Dancer,\u201d but Pattinson didn\u2019t say who he was playing, only that his \u201cbrain actually wasn\u2019t operating,\u201d so he could\u2019ve been playing a sandworm for all we know.<\/p>\n<p>Principal photography on Dune: Part Three began in July. Pattinson joins a cast of many holdovers from the previous movies, including Timoth\u00e9e Chalamet, Zendaya, Florence Pugh, Josh Brolin, Rebecca Ferguson, Anya Taylor-Joy, and Jason Momoa as Duncan Idaho.<\/p>\n<p>Dune: Part Three is scheduled for release on December 18, 2026.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"After months of speculation over whether the once-and-future Batman would appear in Dune: Part Three, Robert Pattinson finally&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":263985,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[27],"tags":[64,63,134,344],"class_list":{"0":"post-263984","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-movies","8":"tag-au","9":"tag-australia","10":"tag-entertainment","11":"tag-movies"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/263984","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=263984"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/263984\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/263985"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=263984"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=263984"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=263984"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
