Intro: A Mysterious Cameo

So, here’s the scoop! In the quirky movie Marty Supreme, there’s a moment when our buddy Milton Rockwell dramatically states, “I was born in 1601. I’m a vampire. I’ve been around forever.” Now, most folks chalked this up to some fancy talk about rich people draining the life out of hard-working Martys. But guess what? It almost turned out to be literal—vampire style!

Hold on, Is That Pattinson?

Director Josh Safdie recently dropped a juicy tidbit during a chat at London’s BFI Southbank. He revealed that our beloved Robert Pattinson lends his voice to a table tennis commentator in the movie! Who knew he was moonlighting as an umpire? Safdie jokingly mentioned how he doesn’t know many British folks, so naturally, he roped in Pattinson, who just happened to be around. It’s like a surprise Easter egg that no one saw coming!

Old Friends Reuniting

This isn’t Pattinson’s first rodeo with the Safdie brothers. Back in 2017, they teamed up for the wild ride Good Time, where Pattinson played a less-than-lawful character trying to rescue his brother. Honestly, if you loved the gritty feel of Good Time, you’ll see some familiar vibes in Marty Supreme.

Hair Today, Gone Tomorrow

Pattinson’s dedication is no joke! For Good Time, he sported bleached hair and a look that would give anyone the creeps. This commitment to his roles is something we can see echoed in Marty Supreme, where the casting includes big names like Kevin O’Leary as Rockwell and Gwyneth Paltrow as the washed-up film star, Kay Stone. Even Timothée Chalamet embraced a less glamorous look, making Marty a little harder to love.

Retracing Royalty in Dune

The surprise Pattinson cameo offers a nostalgic twist to his relationship with Chalamet. Remember that Netflix movie The King? Well, they’re teaming up again in Dune 3, and anticipation is in the air! While we don’t know yet who Pattinson will portray, the buzz is he might be the shape-shifting trickster Scytale—or perhaps even the bizarre worm god, Leto II. Spoiler alert: it’s definitely going to be weird!

Conclusion: What Awaits in Dune?

So, will Pattinson’s role in Dune be as oddball as his past life as a sparkling vampire? Only time will tell! But one thing’s for sure—it’ll be a ride more peculiar than his secret jump into the role of an umpire in Marty Supreme!

And there you have it! Marty Supreme is now in theaters across the U.S., so grab your popcorn and get ready for the unexpected!
