Robert Pattinson may give Timothée Chalamet a hard time in Legendary’s upcoming Dune: Messiah. Sources say the actor has been circling the role of the chief villain in the film, one that is possibly Scytale from Frank Herbert’s books.

The now confirmed third film, Dune: Messiah, is expected to feature a slightly less sprawling ensemble, but that doesn't mean there won't be some big names joining the fun – and one of those heavily rumoured for a role is Robert Pattinson.
