Zendaya would “of course” return for Dune 3.
The actress is open to reprising her role of Chani in a potential Dune Messiah film and insisted that she will work with director Denis Villeneuve again anytime he asks.
“Would we be down? I mean of course. Anytime Denis calls it’s a yes from me, at least. I’m excited to see what happens. I started Messiah and I was like, ‘whoa, I’m only shooting the first movie. Let me just go back to the first one.’ It’s so much to take in, and I think there’s no better hands with better care and love for it than him [Villeneuve],” she told Fandango.
Dune: Part Two, starring Zendaya, Timothée Chalamet, Florence Pugh, Austin Butler, Josh Brolin and Rebecca Ferguson will be released in March and Zendaya can’t wait to see it.
“I’m just excited to see. … It’s just anticipation,” she said.
“Whenever he is ready. I know he’s a perfectionist in many ways and doesn’t want to share things unless he’s fully ready to do that. So [I’m] respecting that and waiting until he’s ready,” she added.
Villeneuve previously revealed he would love to make a trilogy, with the third movie based on Frank Herbert’s Dune Messiah, the second book in his Dune series.
“If I succeed in making a trilogy, that would be the dream. I will say, there are words on paper [for a third film],” he told Empire.
