This year has shaped up to be monumental for Austin Butler , who is still going strong post- Dune: Part Two . He most recently starred in The Bikeriders , which recently rode onto the 2024 movie schedule . And, months ago, he had the Masters of the Air miniseries, which began streaming in January for everyone with an Apple TV+ subscription .
Needless to say, the rising Elvis star is in high demand and understandably so. Still, all that glitters is not gold. Butler recently discussed the more "unglamorous" aspects of working on a set and used a recent harrowing behind-the-scenes experience he had while filming his epic sci-fi movie .
This particular ordeal really catches my attention, because it sounds miserable. It was during an interview with BBC Radio 1 that Austin Butler gave fans a glimpse into the sweltering conditions he and the cast endured while shooting one of Dune : Part Two 's most intense sequences. The star, who played the role of the psychotic Feyd-Rautha in Denis Villeneuve 's movie , explained that not-so-glamorous moment while on set: There’s so many moments that are not glamorous.
In Dune [:Part Two], the first sequence that I shot was the gladiator fight. ..
. It’s 110 degrees Fahrenheit, and it was in a sandpit that had these giant walls around it. So it was swelteringly hot.
And I have two bald caps on, and what I’m wearing is made of like, wetsuit material, and it’s black. And so the sun is just baking me. It was so hot.
It goes without saying tha.
