Walken in Dune.
Was just jarring imo. He has the right look, but he did his usual thing and I couldn’t help but see him rather than the character.
Agreed on Zendaya. Both she and Momoa suffered by comparison to their castmates.
Yeah, I wasn’t fond of Zendaya in Dune.
I haven’t read the books so maybe that’s how the character is supposed to be, but the angst was frustrating.
Walken was fine for me. The emperor played a smaller role in the film anyway.
The real miscast and the only problem in what is quite possibly one of the best adaptations we will ever see: Brolin as Gurney and Momoa as Idaho. They had the right actors in the wrong roles. I just don't understand how you could flip those two pivotal characters like that. I really don't think Momoa will be able to pull of a good mentat in the 3rd film.
I even kept switching the roles while watching it. Such an odd case where two actors were ideal for the opposite role.
glances at Face Off.
Did I dream the moment when the Baron was exposing the situation on Dune and Walken said "give me more!" like he wanted more cowbells?
All I could see was King Louie from Jungle Book lol
