In the latest news on Dennis Villeneuve’s ‘Dune’, the movie is now planned to become two films instead of the one.
In a recent Interview, Legendary CEO Joshua Grode said:
“That’s the plan. There’s a backstory that was hinted at in some of the books [that we expanded]. Also, when you read the book there’s a logical place to stop the movie before the book is over.”

The film boasts cast members such as Jason Mamoa (Aquaman, Justice League), Josh Brolin (Avengers: Infinity War, Sicario), Dave Bautista (Guardians of the Galaxy, Hotel Artemis), Zendaya (SpiderMan Homecoming, The Greatest Showman), Timothee Chalamet (Interstellar, Lady Bird), and Oscar Issac (10 Years, Star Wars The Force Awakens).
Now who wouldn’t want to see that in two (or more as Villeneuve has said to want it) films?
