You have to change things, you have to bend, you have to make painful choices.”“One of the most painful choices for me on this one was Thufir Hawat,” Villeneuve said, referring to the central character Paul Atreides’ mentor, who was to be played by Stephen McKinley Henderson (Lady Bird, Lincoln).Additionally, Tim Blake Nelson (The Ballad of Buster Scruggs, O Brother Where Art Thou?) had also been announced for the film, but does not appear in the final cut.Nelson recently told Movieweb: “I had a great time over there shooting it.

Courtney Love helped The Last Dinner Party censor ‘Nothing Matters’ lyrics for radio
The Last Dinner Party have revealed that Courtney Love helped advise them on how to censor their ‘Nothing Matters’ lyrics for radio.The original version of the quintet’s debut single has a chorus where vocalist Abigail Morris sings: “and I will fuck you, like nothing matters.”On the radio and during recent TV performances on The Graham Norton Show in the UK and The Late Show With Stephen Colbert Stateside, they changed the word “fuck” to “have”.Speaking to Music Week, Morris revealed how Love advised them on changing the lyric when meeting them at a festival.“We met her at The Great Escape and at the time we were in agony over what on earth we were going to use instead of [the F-word] because that’s the whole point,” Morris said.“After the show she stormed up the dressing room stairs saying, ‘I’ve got it!’ She had an empty packet of painkillers and she’d scrawled ‘punch’ on there.“She was kinda pitching to us. We were like, ‘Yeah, thanks!’ We appreciated her passion.”Elsewhere in the same interview, Morris expressed the band’s love for Florence + The Machine, who they supported at a 2023 gig and who recently told the band that they were the winners of BBC Radio 1’s Sound Of 2024 poll.“Florence Welch was someone we spoke to who really made an impact on us,” Morris said.
