The script for Dune: Part 3 is almost complete, but unlike the second part, which is based on the first book, the third could be about the second and the future success of the film.
The “Dune” universe is about to expand. Denis Villeneuve, the visionary director behind the hit movie adaptation, has shared exciting details about what’s to come. Not only does the sequel “Dune: Part 2” promise to be bigger than its predecessor, but the script for a third film based on “Dune: Messiah” is ready.
Villeneuve, in a recent interview with the South Korean press, admitted that although the script for “Dune: Messiah” is not yet finished, it is in the final stage of writing. “It’s being written now…it’s still going to take a while,” the director explained, expressing his eagerness to continue exploring the rich universe created by Frank Herbert. Although the making of “Messiah” depends largely on the box office success of the second part, Villeneuve is optimistic and has a clear vision of the future. This is similar to the first episode where he put honey on our lips and gave us a warning sign at the end of this world to come.
“Dune: Part 2” promises to be amazing.
Speaking about “Dune: Part 2,” Villeneuve did not hold back his praise. According to him, the series surpasses the first installment in many aspects, especially in emotional intensity and connection with the characters. “For me, this movie is much better than part one,” he said. This quality boost adds to an already impressive cast, which includes names like Timothée Chalamet, Zendaya, and Oscar Isaac, among others.
“Dune: Part 2” promises not only a stronger narrative, but a slightly longer runtime than its predecessor, an extra 11 minutes. This extension allows you to dive deeper into the legendary journey of Paul Atreides on his path of revenge against Chaney and the Fremen who destroyed his family. The film explores Atreides’ dilemma between the love of his life and the fate of the popular universe.
A star cast for an amazing saga
The sequel will bring back stars from the original film like Chalamet, Zendaya and Brolin and welcome new talent like Florence Pugh and Christopher Walken. The combination of veteran and fresh talent promises to take the saga to new heights while maintaining the quality that earned the first film six Academy Awards.
What Villeneuve has revealed so far is that both “Dune: Part 2” and a potential “Dune: Messiah” will be significant additions to the sci-fi saga. With a highly passionate director and a cast that mixes established and emerging names, Dune’s future looks brighter than ever. Fans can look forward to not only a sequel that’s bigger than its predecessor, but also a chance to dive into Herbert’s universe with “Dune: Messiah.”
We will be told in the third part
The “Dune” saga has established itself as one of the most influential and visually stunning science fiction franchises of the modern era. Building on the rich narrative and complex universe created by Frank Herbert, the film adaptations have captivated a new generation of fans.
In the third installment, an adaptation of “Dune: Messiah,” the story delves into deeper and darker themes, the aftermath of Paul Atreides’ rise to power. This episode can transform Atreides from a messianic leader to a ruler and overestimated by his followers.
The book explores the duality of worship and oppression, shows how absolute power corrupts and how the image of a charismatic leader turns into a dangerous idol. In “Dune: Messiah,” Herbert introduces concepts such as Atreides’ inner struggle with his destiny and the impact his decisions have on the Dune universe. These elements can provide a rich and unique narrative, providing a polished and polished look to the saga that contrasts with previous episodes.
