Austin Butler May Be Starring In New Dune: Part Two
Austin Butler, who had his breakout role in The Carrie Diaries, is the latest actor in talks of joining the cast of Dune: Part Two.
Other celebrities like Harry Styles and Tye Sheridan were also considered for the role of Feyd-Rautha. Rautha is one of the antagonists in the sci-fi film based on the 1965 novel of the same name. The news of this negotiation leaves fans excited that Butler may share the silver screen with Timothee Chalamet.

It was just last week that Midsommar actress Florence Pugh was announced to be playing love interest Princess Irulan. The first film already had a star-studded cast, but it appears that Denis Villeneuve wants as many A-listers as possible.
The second Dune film will have an October 2023 release, but fans can see Butler star in Baz Lurhmann’s Elvis Presley biopic titled Elvis. The film premieres on June 24, 2022
