Sting Offered To Give Austin Butler Underwear From The Original ‘Dune’ Movie

Buy Me A Coffee

Sting, yes, *the* Sting, decided to offer Austin Butler his underpants from the OG “Dune” flick. Butler, who’s now stepping into Feyd-Rautha Harkonnen’s snazzy shoes, spilled the beans on this surreal encounter on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” after their meet-up at the New York City premiere.

Picture this: Butler, probably still processing the fact that he’s about to don the role once rocked by the “Fields of Gold” maestro, Sting, found himself face-to-face with the legend himself. And what did Sting do? He casually strolled up and dropped the bombshell that he’s still hanging onto the codpiece from the original “Dune”. He generously offered to let Butler borrow it, like it’s some sort of intergalactic fashion loan.

Now, if you’re wondering why Butler needs Sting’s old crotch armor, well, Feyd-Rautha didn’t make the cut for the 2021 “Dune: Part One”. But fear not, fellow spice enthusiasts, because Feyd is revving up to be the main baddie in the sequel. And according to Butler, this version of the character is as bald as a baby’s bottom and as ruthless as a sandstorm in the desert.

But don’t let the lack of hair fool you; Butler wasn’t about to shave his head for method acting this time around. Nope, after going all out for “Elvis”, he decided to draw a line in the sand (pun absolutely intended) to keep his sanity intact. He realized that method acting 24/7 isn’t exactly a recipe for a happy family life. So, he opted for a healthier approach, leaving his Feyd persona on set and not letting it hijack his real-world relationships.

Sure, some of Feyd’s villainous vibes might seep into Butler’s daily life, but he made a conscious effort to keep it PG outside of filming. And hey, who wouldn’t want to maintain a safe distance from any potential Harkonnen tendencies creeping into their personal life? So, kudos to Butler for finding that balance between going deep into character and not becoming the next big bad in real life.
