[@dionysuskapeleia]

I want two men like Timothee and Austin to stare at me,when I'm talking, the way they stare at Zendaya. With such concentration,respect and adoration.

[@enchantedboy66]

So you're looking for platonic friendship?

[@enchantedboy66]

@@dionysuskapeleia I don’t know about Austin, but in Timmy’s case, you’d have to be a man to get that kind of attention in your love life. If you think he adores Zendaya, go check out the videos for the Call Me by Your Name press tour. You’ll see how he looks at someone he’s truly smitten with. 😈

[@sieraclayton1503]

@tedboy66 ?! Timothee' Chalamet is heterosexual. He's only ever dated girls - and beautiful, talented ones at that. He's dating model/entrepreneur, Ms. Jenner, as we "speak." He is impressed with Zendaya because she's impressive. She acts, dances, writes, sings, paints/draws, produces, etc. etc. etc. Zendaya even did most of the stunts as a Trapeze Artist way up in the air in her great hit film, THE GREATEST SHOWMAN. And Zendaya also convincingly portrays a tennis player in her upcoming film, CHALLENGERS , according to the film's award-winning director who had used the coach of US Open winner, Coco Gauff, to coach Zendaya on tennis-playing for months!

[@sieraclayton1503]

@@yungaj6166 True. The fact is Timothee' is hetero. And he's only ever dated girls. Beautiful, talented girls.

[@narii87]

I love how being unproblematic IS part of why these actors' are so popular. You see people commenting on their powerful perfomances AND about how well mannered they are. They are so quiet and calm and all giving this introvert vibe in their own way. If you compare this to the marvel cast an promo, it's way more laid back and as much as I love banters, jokes, and iconic lines, it feels great to see courteous, humble and self aware young actors and actress interact with each other.

[@JPayne-ul4qd]

This is why Zendaya gets cast in these rolls. When you can pinpoint the differences in the characters she portrays. This is what separates actors from ACTORS.

I agree. This focus on this book in cinema form will take several iterations as will their careers. Hopefully they will be given that chance to show a range in their careers that adds complexity as well as longevity.

[@wnstayawhile6415]

@Pinkorchid72 Yes, Florence also! If she were on this video, I would have said her, too. I would want to be friends with all 4 of them, and I love how they treat each other with respect and admiration.

[@AuxaneST]

First proof of respect would be to spell his name right. Timothée.

[@rosanjiela]

Zendaya and Austin should do another movie together! Like Mr. & Mrs. Smith or something like that! I cannot wait for this movie though!!!

[@darionnasampson-gilbert8365]

To hear Timothee talk with so much wisdom and knowledge is so inspiring and comforting to hear ❤

[@sieraclayton1503]

Timothee' was a straight-A student at a prestigious University. Austin is well-spoken and well-read also. Zendaya is a brilliantly Multi-Talented actress. Florence is a very good actress, too. All 4 thespians are top-notch (and funny) and deserving of accolades and awards (including OSCARS) for their work on this magnificent film. I would include Tom Holland in their group of fantastic actors. That scene of Tom, filled with righteous indignation in that church alone with Robert Pattinson in The Devil All the Time, pinned me to my chair. Tom is a revelation. I see why he won a BAFA for his brilliant work as a Child in THE IMPOSSIBLE.

[@sieraclayton1503]

I shared your excitement about seeing DUNE: PART TWO. And I've seen it now, 3 times. Obviously the writers - including the Genius Denis' have diverged in crucial ways from the books.

[@tracys169]

I remember reading the novel, and I immediately felt like Denis Villeneuve. Amidst the chaos, plots within plots, there was a love story. Paul has a sincere and enduring love for Chani. She was his sihayya, his desert spring. She's his place of refuge. Chani obviously loves Paul as well, she believes in him, she would kill for him. They're just lovely together in the novel...despite the overall story was not a romance lol.
