He is a great actor, but he's always a bit Christopher Walken, he's not an actor who disappears into the role as some do. Seems an odd choice to me.

Given the book is supposed to be the bible, and in it the Emperor is described as looking - as would be the case with many of the ruling class - much younger than the 70+ years he is due to spice consumption, I’m a bit meh about this. Should have been someone middle-aged who can do the gravitas thing well.

Christopher Walken Cast in 'Dune: Part Two,' Just as Fatboy Slim Prophesied
Christopher Walken will portray the Emperor of the universe in 'Dune: Part Two,' over 20 years after Fatboy Slim's "Weapon of Choice" video.

LOL that video brings back memories - when I was a lot younger a friend and myself went to a LAN party and around 5am very drunk were trying to use the luggage trolleys in the hotel as go-carts - not quite as nice a place as that but somewhere which took itself seriously... we were almost kicked out.

Is it gonna be some kind of Italian mobster themed empiral court?
I struggle to see past his voice, it's ludicrously him, his voice is him.

Have you watched Severance, he disappears into his role in that.

No, don't have Apple TV. Although it seems to be getting an increasing amount of good stuff so maybe it's time to drop 'Flix and pick up Apple TV.

The Last Days of Ptolemy Grey is very good
He really is the best, seems such a nice chap. His performances in TP: The Return are superb!

Half way through this film and I'm really enjoying it.
Even my wife, who generally avoids sci fi, is really into it.

Awesome cast especially Rebecca.

I have the major hots for her. Obviously I didn't tell my wife hawhaw but really, she is perfect to me.

I think he needs to work hard to loose the walken. He didn't manage it with the uk TV series either.
Actually i think martin freeman could do a evil character if he wanted without over hamming it.
A prequel series to the epic Dune saga, which returned to big screens last year with Oscar-nominated director Denis Villeneuve and an all-star cast, this HBO Max TV show rewinds the clock back to when the fabled Bene Gesserit was just the seed of an idea.

He should produce films up to Children of Dune at least before resorting to KJA's rubbish.
