Timothée Chalamet and Zendaya Admit It's 'Strange' Kissing Each Other in 'Dune: Part Two' (Exclusive)

The 'Dune: Part Two' co-stars are professionals, but admit it can be a little awkward locking lips with a longtime friend on screen.

The pair sat down with their Dune: Part Two co-stars to speak with ET's Nischelle Turner about the upcoming installment in director Denis Villeneuve's adaptation of Frank Herbert's futuristic epic, and Chalamet and Zendaya shared their thoughts on how the sequel explores the romance between their characters Paul Atreides and Chani -- and how it can be a little awkward. "He always found a way to somehow -- amongst all of the epicness that is the Dune universe -- find a way to carve out a very sentimental, beautiful love story that is, I feel, in many respects, earned." Another difference, especially for Zendaya, coming off her Emmy-winning role on Euphoria-- a modern-day high school drama -- was crafting a love story in the unique language of the Dune universe, which is set thousands of years in the future.
