A new clip from Dune: Part Two has recently been released, giving fans a much-anticipated glimpse into the character of Feyd-Rautha, portrayed by Austin Butler.

The clip offers a more extensive look at the intense fight scene between Paul and Feyd-Rautha, which has already been teased in trailers for the movie.

Princess Irulan, portrayed by Florence Pugh, warns against employing Feyd-Rautha, referring to him as 'psychotic' in the trailers. Additionally, Léa Seydoux joins the cast as Lady Margot, a powerful member of the Bene Gesserit. These new additions to the Dune: Part Two cast only add to the anticipation surrounding the film.
In the black and white sequences of Dune: Part Two, Feyd-Rautha is depicted engaging in ritualistic combat, including killing both a combatant and an innocent. This establishes him as the most skilled adversary Paul has ever faced. The knife fight between Feyd-Rautha and Paul promises to be a pivotal and intense sequence that fans eagerly await.
