Why Anya Taylor-Joy 'Bawled Her Eyes Out' on Set of Dune: Part Three (Exclusive)

Now, listen, we just got a first look at Dune 3. Mm-hmm. I don't know if I'm ready. Am I ready? I mean, listen, it's my absolute dream job. I bawled my eyes out when we wrapped that movie, and I saw that trailer again, and I was like, oh, this is going to be a time. But in this one, too, we get to see you with some real meat. Like, it feels like it's a more meaty part for you in this. Mm-hmm. Oh, let's let her look at you. You see her? She's like, mm-hmm. You're good. You look great. I love the cherry blossoms. See, we wait. I wait for the fashion moment. I wait to see what you're going to do. Can I talk to you about that for a second? Like, do you sit with the team and collaborate? Like, what do we want to do? What story do we want to tell today? It depends. Sometimes it's like this one, which is just an immediate clear vision. We had the premieres in Kyoto, and I was like, cherry blossoms all over the dress. And then we just got lucky that it was cherry blossom season. But yeah, I feel really lucky to collaborate. This is Dior by Jonathan Anderson. I'm really grateful that he gave my vision life. Toad, pack our things. Let's go. Let's-a go! Oh, princess, you're going to regret that. So you guys, this is the first film. Billion dollars, big hit. What can we expect for the second one? Can we just lean in or manifest $2 billion for the second one? What I will say is I'm not even sure I'm allowed to say this. The first one is amazing. I think the second is better, like genuinely. And when you're doing animation, you're not really present in anybody else's session, and so you're not completely aware of the entirety of the story. When you sit down and you see it for the first time, it really is for the first time. This one blew me away. It was really, really cute. And this movie, of course, leans into the aspect of family even more. So I kind of feel like just being with you guys yesterday, it does feel like you're a little family on this press tour together, all of you together. Absolutely, and it's been so magical to get to experience Japan all together. Casting did a really good job in terms of chemistry, but I also understand why they don't have us all in a booth at the same time, because we are chaos gremlins. I was going to say, who are the Pins? If you're a family, who are the parentals? Chris is daddy. OK, Chris is daddy. Chris is absolutely daddy. He can reign it in at a certain point and make sure we're getting the message across. So who's the problem child, the bratty little brothers? I feel like if Keegan and Jack are in the room, that it's already just becoming a thing. But we all definitely lean into it. Definitely do. So and you're adding, you're adding Brie. She's new. Donald, you're adding this time around. Issa Rae, Glenn Powell, how does adding heavy hitters like that even bring, I guess, elevate the project even more? Oh, it's amazing, because it's also a secret to us. And so the whole time that we're filming, we're like, I know you know. Tell me who it is. Who did you find out? So if it's a secret world, when do you finally find out? I knew about Brie first, because I think the directors trusted me with the information, where I felt very proud of myself. Glenn, I found out pretty last minute. And Donald, I honestly found out about Donald like pretty much as we got on the plane. And I'm such a big fan of his, so it's thrilling. And everyone's so kind. Yeah, you guys are a good group. I was just saying that yesterday. I'm like, everyone was so good and like just up and ready to play and have a good time. You bring that energy, too. I appreciate that. Thank you.
