Dune 2's Emperor Miscast Complaints Miss The True Genius Of Christopher Walken's Performance (screenrant.com)

Christopher Walken's portrayal of Emperor Shaddam in Dune: Part Two intentionally subverts expectations of a powerful villain.

The subdued performance of the Emperor highlights the themes of leadership and the corruptibility of power in the film.

Despite criticism, Walken's unspectacular portrayal is actually in line with Denis Villeneuve's vision for a more realistic sci-fi narrative.
