Long Live the Fighters. #DunePartTwo only in theatres November 3.
The film, from Warner Bros. Photographs and Legendary Pics, is the very expected follow-up to 2021’s six-time Academy Award-winning “Dune.”
The big-screen awesome continues the adaptation of Frank Herbert’s heralded best seller Dune with returning and new stars, which includes Oscar candidate Timothée Chalamet (“Wonka,” “Call Me by Your Name”), Zendaya (“Spider-Man: No Way Home,” “Malcolm & Marie,” “Euphoria”), Rebecca Ferguson (“Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning”), Oscar candidate Josh Brolin (“Avengers: End Game,” “Milk”), Oscar candidate Austin Butler (“Elvis,” “Once Upon A Time…In Hollywood”), Oscar candidate Florence Pugh (“Black Widow,” “Little Women”), Dave Bautista (the “Guardians of the Galaxy” films, “Thor: Love and Thunder”), Oscar victor Christopher Walken (“The Deer Hunter,” “Hairspray”), Stephen McKinley Henderson (“Fences,” “Lady Bird”), Léa Seydoux (the “James Bond” franchise and “Crimes of the Future”), with Stellan Skarsgård (the “Mamma Mia!” films, “Avengers: Age of Ultron”), with Oscar candidate Charlotte Rampling (“45 Years,” “Assassin’s Creed”), and Oscar victor Javier Bardem (“No Country for Old Men,” “Being the Ricardos”).
“Dune: Part Two” will investigate the mythical expedition of Paul Atreides as he unites with Chani and the Fremen while on a warpath of vengeance against the conspirators who shattered his family. Facing an option between the love of his life and the destiny of the known cosmos, he endeavors to forestall a horrible future only he can foresee.
Villeneuve directed from a playscript he co-wrote with Jon Spaihts based on Herbert’s novel. The film is produced by Mary Parent, Cale Boyter, Villeneuve, Tanya Lapointe and Patrick McCormick. The executive producers are Josh Grode, Herbert W. Gains, Jon Spaihts, Thomas Tull, Brian Herbert, Byron Merritt, Kim Herbert, with Kevin J. Anderson serving as imaginative adviser.
Villeneuve is again working together with his “Dune” creatives: Oscar-winning director of photography Greig Fraser; Oscar-winning production designer Patrice Vermette; Oscar-winning editor Joe Walker; Oscar-winning visible effects manager Paul Lambert; Oscar-nominated costume designer Jacqueline West. Oscar-winning composer Hans Zimmer is again on hand to create the score.
“Dune: Part Two” was recorded on location in Budapest, Abu Dhabi, Jordan and Italy. The film is slated for a November 3, 2023 world-wide release from Warner Bros. Pictures.
goosebumps
So many of those soft, greasy indistinct shots could have been filmed in a parking lot in front a of a beige wall with a bit of a wind machine and you wouldn’t be able to tell the difference.
I really didn’t think I would like the remake…having read all the books…two or three times…WOW, was I wrong….Outstanding and Well Done!!! Mr Herbert would approve…
I got similar feelings from the first one that LOTR gave me. felt so refreshing. excited to see an actual film for the first time in a while
The riding part always give me chills over my body
