He was so-so for me. Not great, not terrible either. Since he had so little to work with, they could've cast any other good actor and it wouldn't have mattered. I was hoping he would bring something special though.

IMHO and I'll probably get flamed for it, Zendaya was the weakest actor in the cast. She was ok (not bad), but when comparing to the rest of the cast, she was definitely outclassed.

Agreed on Zendaya. Both she and Momoa suffered by comparison to their castmates.

Yeah, I wasn’t fond of Zendaya in Dune.

I haven’t read the books so maybe that’s how the character is supposed to be, but the angst was frustrating.
