Zendaya confirmed that she would sign on to reprise her role as Chani in a prospective third Dune film during a cast interview with Fandango that was released on Friday.

The 27-year-old performer was joined by several of her castmates, including Timothee Chalamet and Florence Pugh, for the sit-down, where they discussed various aspects of the upcoming  Denis Villeneuve-directed movie Dune: Part Two.

At one point, the actress - whose boyfriend recently showed his affection for her on social media -  was asked if she, as well as her castmates, would be interested in reprising their roles in a prospective film based on the 1969 novel Dune Messiah.

Zendaya responded: 'Would we be down? I mean of course. Any time Denis [Villeneuve] calls, it's a yes from me. I'm excited to see what happens.'

The Euphoria star went on to reveal that she had begun reading Dune Messiah and quickly stopped in order to develop a better understanding of the storyline.

She recalled: 'I started Messiah and I was like, "Woah, I'm only shooting the first movie. Let me just go back to the first one."'

Although Zendaya admitted that working on Dune Messiah would be a difficult endeavor, she was confident that Villeneuve was the right director for the job.

'It's so much to take in, but there's no better hands with better care and love for it than Denis,' she said.

The performer then expressed that it was all up to Villeneuve to make major decisions regarding the future of the Dune franchise.

'I know he's a perfectionist in many ways and doesn't want to share things unless he's fully ready to do that. So [I'm] respecting that and waiting until he's ready,' she said. 

Zendaya made her debut as Chani in Dune: Part One, {Мультфільми онлайн, дивитися мультфільми} which was released in 2021.
