Now, Pattinson wants to continue his recent mainstream success and become a part of Denis Villeneuve's version of Dune. Speaking with Variety, Pattinson was asked what he thought about Reeves as a filmmaker before joining The Batman, to which he responded with, «I love those 'Apes' movies so much. There’s only been two movies — well, three now — where I wanted to do a sequel: the 'Apes' movies, 'Sicario' and 'Dune.'» Pattinson jokingly added that if Reeves could get a good performance out of an ape, the director could do the same for him.
