i mean, who wouldn't want to see him as the chief villain? and omg that anecdote about him finding it relaxing in the desert heat is everything!! 
i love how he's taking that experience into his future roles... like, what other surprises can we expect from this film?! 
i'm also so down for jennifer lawrence to be a part of this... two talented actors together just makes my day! 
. Now, I'm even more hyped for December 2026 – can't wait to see Pattinson bring Scytale to life! 
robert pattinson is going to be the chief villain and i need all the tea! 
i love how he's taking it cool after going through that intense heat on set tho, it's like he's saying "hey, I've been to hell and back, bring it on!" 
. But honestly, who wouldn't want to see him as the villain? I've heard the heat scenes were intense, but apparently he's learned to roll with it... now we just have to wait for Dec 2026 
. I'm curious about this Scytale character though - does anyone know more about that guy? Maybe he'll bring some depth to the story 
I think it's awesome that Robert Pattinson is talking about how he found relaxation in those grueling desert scenes. I've always been curious about how actors stay sane during long shoots like that... especially when they're dealing with intense heat and probably not exactly in their comfort zone 
.
. Can't wait for more info on his role and the rest of the cast. December 2026 is gonna fly by so fast!
