Chalamet added that his role in the final film was the most emotive for him on a personal level, and he felt nostalgic while filming. He praised his co-star Anya Taylor-Joy's performance, saying she was 'unbelievable' and 'terrifying and amazing'.
Dune: Part Three is set to release in cinemas on December 18, and fans are eagerly anticipating the final installment of this epic sci-fi trilogy.
The film's cast includes a number of actors reprising their roles, including Rebecca Ferguson as Lady Jessica, Javier Bardem as Stilgar, Jason Momoa as Hayt, and Anya Taylor-Joy as Paul's sister Alia.
