Dune: Part Two (2024)

Austin Butler's Feyd-Rautha brings a frightening appetite for an audience to Dune: Part Two. In the arena, controlled stillness and sudden physical attack turn spectacle into a declaration of character. Timothée Chalamet's Paul is negotiating prophecy and political consequence; Feyd's concentrated relish is more immediately legible. Paul is the protagonist, not a safely uncomplicated moral hero. Watch Part One first, and expect this antagonist to become important within an already dense, violent power struggle.
