Dune: Part Three cast members take part in children's pranks on Rylan Clark for BBC Children in Need

A host of Dune: Part Three cast members have taken part in a hilarious prank on Rylan Clark for BBC Children in Need 2026 – and Radio Times has an exclusive clip.

The prank, which is set to be shown in full on the BBC One show on Friday 13 November, sees Rylan interviewing Timothée Chalamet, Zendaya, Jason Momoa and Anya Taylor-Joy at what he believes is an ordinary press junket for the upcoming film.

But what he doesn’t know is that the four stars have teamed up with BBC Children in Need – and that three children are framing the questions through the actors’ earpieces.

The clip shows one of the children telling Chalamet to go on his phone and tell Clark he’s “bidding on an air fryer right now”.

As the other stars express dismay when Chalamet – once again at the children's instruction – reveals he’s "lost the bid", Clark looks increasingly baffled.

Clark is among this year's presenting line-up on BBC Children in Need, which also includes Alex Jones, Mel Giedroyc, Sara Cox and Tyler West.

Viewers can expect a stellar evening of famous faces, dazzling performances, sketches, surprise appearances and a return from the Children in Need Choir, as well as inspiring stories from young people and children across the UK, highlighting the life-changing impact of the appeal.

Meanwhile, the closing instalment of Denis Villeneuve's Dune trilogy, which is adapted from the second book in Frank Herbert's sci-fi series, Dune Messiah, is due for release in cinemas on 18 December.

Alongside returning stars Chalamet, Momoa, Taylor-Joy and Zendaya, there are also some huge new additions, such as Robert Pattinson.

Speaking about the upcoming film, Zendaya – who is reprising her role as Chani – previously teased some deviations from the source material.

In an interview with The New York Times, she explained that although "there’s a lot in this film that is very true to the source material" there would also be some "departures".

Meanwhile, Paul Atreides star Chalamet said that "this movie is its own thing" when compared to the previous two, adding: "It didn’t feel like the bar dropped at all, Denis just changed the location of the bar."
