I think its a privilege, so being able to be here is very special.
So I’m very grateful for every day that I get to wake up and do this.
Florence:Ditto Ditto.
It’s a very unique situation that we’re all in.
Yeah, it’s it’s a huge feeling.
Austin:First of all, I’m grateful that you started with that question.
I’ve never had an interview start that way.
There’s no competition.
There’s no sense of negativity that I’ve felt at all.
Like, there’s just love and support and inspiration that I feel from each one of you.
The four of you are honestly a wild group of the it people at the moment.
Timothee:No, well maybeyoudid.
Zendaya:Can you imagine?!
But I’ve loved Austin’s response there because I feel so lucky to be amongst this group.
So, no, I did not get a say in it.
And I’m happy I didn’t because we got the best group, you know.
To learn and grow from them makes the whole experience so much better.
You know what I mean?
Wanting to be around makes the experience so much better.
Florence:it’s possible for you to feel it in the press as well.
Florence:We need to do this!
Zendaya:We talked about this, but we havent done it yet!
Florence:The Spice Chicks!
Zendaya:The Spice Girls!
Zendaya and Florence:Plus two boys!
Zendaya:We’ve been seeing each other every day.
We actually hang out in real life.
Timothee:We have a weekly group Zoom.
Zendaya:Are the Harkonnens there?!
Timothee:So Zendayas not coming!
Zendaya:The sandworms, while exciting, they’re also kind of terrifying.
I think that expanding landscape would just be so stunning to look at.
In any of these questions about what would you take?
Or how would you be?
I’ve always replied with like, can I take Chani?
Can Chani actually be there?
If it’s just us we would die within a day.
We wouldn’t survive.
Timothee and Austin you have quite the fight scene in this, what was training like to prepare you?
Austin:We had a lot of training individually before we even met.
And then we got to Hungary.
We both have worked so hard to get together.
It was really bonding.
I was doing it in my hotel room, it was all I thought about.
I still do it.
Timothee:I do it alone in front of the mirror!
Florence:But they were brilliant in it.
They did it for a week, and they would do whole runs of the entire stunts.
It was exhausting watching it because it’s a very intense, high-pressured fight sequence.
And they did it it was it was amazing.
It was amazing to watch.
Florence:I have a question for you Austin.
Did it get uncomfortable and sticky and hot?
And I was focused on so many other things, but it was usually when it got really hot.
Zendaya:You just kind of get used to it.
And I was like man how is everybody acting so normal?
But by the end, it was like it felt weird to not have it.
