Warner Bros&#39; Dune: Part 1 has grossed more than $300 million since it premiered on October 22, and fans were a bit surprised that the&nbsp;Feyd-Rautha Harkonnen character - played by rock icon Sting in the 1984 feature film directed by David Lynch - was nowhere to be seen.&nbsp;

However, most observers expect the Feyd character to play a big role in the already-greenlit Dune: Part 2. The only question is who could fill the outsized shoes of rock icon Sting? Who indeed?

Here&#39;s an idea: Vote up the actors you most want to take the Feyd reins from Sting. Choose wisely. The known universe may depend on it.&nbsp;

List of the best current Saturday Night Live cast members, as ranked by fans and casual critics. SNL has been on for 45 glorious seasons. The show has been known for scooping up the most talented improv and <a href="http://www.ranker.com/crowdranked-list/comedians?ref=internalCrossLinking_keyword">comedy actors</a> on the underground circuit and turning them into comedy superstars. In 2012, many of the SNL cast members who were carrying the weight of the show for years - including Bill Hader, Jason Sudeikis, and Fred Armisen - left the cast and left plenty of room for newcomers to shine. The current cast of SNL is filled with newcomers who have yet to make a big name for themselves in sketch comedy. The present season has allowed these lesser known cast members to properly sparkle.&nbsp;

This list features <a href="https://www.ranker.com/list/what-saturday-night-live-cast-thinks-about-show/mike-calendrillo/" target="_blank">long time cast members</a> like Bobby Moynihan and long-time sketch comedy veterans Kenan Thompson and Kate McKinnon, as well as newer faces like Melissa Villase&ntilde;or and Kate McKinnon&nbsp;who prove themselves on a weekly basis. Not only is individual comedy prowess important, illustrating an ability to work as a comedy team puts some of these cast members among the best of the best. The SNL current cast is versatile and can do it all.&nbsp;
