Maybe Timoth\u00e9e Chalamet<\/u><\/a> isn\u2019t transitioning to a mid-career change as a Strega Nona impersonator, as I previously claimed<\/u><\/a>. The reality, it seems, is far worse: he\u2019s going bald. <\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

The news came to me by way of my favorite gossip blogger, Lainey Liu, the brilliant mind behind laineygossip.com<\/u><\/a>. Referencing my previous joke about his ancient Italian grandmother witch costuming, she referenced rumors that he\u2019d buzzed his head for Dune: Messiah<\/em>. The eagerly anticipated sequel to Dune Part Two<\/em> allegedly began production this week in Hungary. As Lainey points out, Zendaya was scoped on location in Budapest amid rumors of the sequel officially kicking into gear. <\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

Funny enough, Zendaya made news as she landed in Budapest for reasons entirely unrelated to Denis Villeneuve\u2019s cinematic ambitions. Instead, a fan uploaded a video of the star kissing a dog on the street. The caption on TikTok read: \u201cPov: your dog just licked Zendaya\u2019s mouth.\u201d<\/p>\n

Watch her smooch some puppies below:<\/p>\n

Back to Timmy \u2014 there\u2019s no book description that describes character Paul Atreides as shaving his head. In fact, the only description I know of about Atreides\u2019 locks concerns the hue, which is \u201ccoal-colored.\u201d It would be one of many other stylistic departures on visionary Villeneuve\u2019s part, like the bald and pasty Harkonnen clan, or that spooky creature in the first movie viewers still don\u2019t have answers about. (I\u2019m still of the mind that it\u2019s Dr. Yueh\u2019s wife after twisted experimentation courtesy of the Baron.)<\/p>\n

<\/h3>\n

<\/p>\n

Still, it\u2019s hard not to notice that tiny slip of his neck in pap shots from his walk-about with Jenner, which show a fresh buzz cut. If he\u2019s not gone bald for the role, they\u2019re maybe putting him in a wig. The new film’s title, Dune: Messiah<\/em>, certainly calls to mind images of long-haired locks on some guy that\u2019s been nailed to a cross. In Dune<\/em> terminology, that\u2019s like being eaten alive by a sandworm. <\/p>\n
