Summary
- Timothée Chalamet experienced a challenging surfing attempt.
- He humorously declared 'Surfing movie never' on Instagram.
- Chalamet will reprise his role in Dune: Part Three in 2026.

Actor Timothée Chalamet has identified a cinematic genre he is unlikely to pursue following a personal encounter with the sport. Chalamet shared a video on Instagram Stories showcasing his attempt at surfing, which resulted in him falling into the water. He humorously captioned the clip, stating, "Surfing movie never," indicating a reluctance to take on roles involving water sports after this experience.
This real-life challenge stands in stark contrast to his acclaimed performances, including his portrayal of Paul Atreides in the Dune films. In Denis Villeneuve's epic, Chalamet's character navigates the treacherous desert planet Arrakis and masters riding giant sandworms. Fans can anticipate his return as Paul in "Dune: Part Three," slated for release on December 18, 2026, which will continue his character's journey amidst political turmoil.
