Austin Butler Has always been Proven He’s A Dedicated Actor Who’s Able To Lose Himself In A Performance

No two Austin Butler performances are alike, and that’s because the actor has a history of being able to lose himself in a performance. The internet gave the guy a lot of grief for his Elvis voice, especially after he kept using it long after production wrapped. However, that just shows that he was so dedicated to his portrayal of the real-life figure that he fully submerged himself in the body, mind, and spirit of the King of Rock in Roll.

The same can be said about Dune Part 2 and The Bikeriders, two movies where he looked less like an actor playing sociopath and biker, respectively, and more like two characters come to life. Personally, I would love to see how Butler would lose himself in the famous Heat character if he, in fact, joins the prequel/sequel.

Though The Bikeriders, and Austin Butler’s performance in it, has people excited for what could happen if he ends up joining the Heat 2 cast, By making comparisons between the actor and Val Kilmer before, Just like their famous characters, the two Hollywood stars have a similar presence in that they have some serious range when it comes to acting and seem to have a thirst for meaning and growth in their lives.

It will be interesting to see where Butler’s career takes him in the coming years, and what kind of roles he’ll take on next. He seems to be selective with his projects (five movies since 2019), and I think Heat 2 could take him to the next level.
