Kyle MacLachlan is famous for his many roles in iconic films and TV series over the years, from Desperate Housewives and Sex and the City to Twin Peaks and Portlandia.

The actor is, of course, also known for playing Paul Atreides in the 1984 film Dune, which is now being remade with Timothée Chalamet, Rebecca Ferguson, Stellan Skarsgard, and Charlotte Rampling.

MacLachlan gave his nod of approval to this new iteration of Dune when he appeared on BuzzFeed News’ Twitter morning show AM to DM Thursday.

The actor said the people behind the remake are “getting together a great cast together with really talented people.”
