be interesting to see what WB is thinking on TV shows, they had a Bene Gesserit TV show planned with DenisV involved but haven't heard much about it. Will they make more movies, more TV shows, or both?
Yes we all said that
Hope scheduling works out so we can get this sooner than later. Also wonder how committed Denis is to the franchise? 2-3 more films?
I don't think even he is 100% commited to doing a part 3. Think more than anything Denis wants to be sure he fully tells his version of the first book.
That would be the most cost effective approach, but my understanding is that Part Two will close the book. From there, if WB does do a Part Three it probably won't be Dennis, and just be him overseeing it under someone else's hand. And for that, I doubt his contract is structured for that properly.
He said, "There is 'Dune's second book, 'The Messiah of Dune,' which could make an extraordinary film. I always saw that there could be a trilogy; after that, we'll see. It's years of work; I can't think of going further than that."
Here's what he said in an interview:
Denis Villeneuve Wants to Make ‘Dune’ Trilogy That Includes Adaptation of ‘Dune Messiah’
Villeneuve has ambitions to turn his envisioning of the Frank Herbert novels into an epic three-parter.www.indiewire.com
Well, at least Dune 2 will have an ending since it's the end of the book.oh fuck me, we need to go through this song and dance again for part 3?

noGlad to see this confirmed, and smart on them to get the word out, since it's only going to help convince people to watch Part 1.
Er, I hope they get rid of Zimmer though. For no other reason than his score not being to my tastes at all. I loved everything about the film apart from his music.
Great news. If Villeneuve is able to deliver on his vision of a part 2 and 3, and possibly 4, it could be a real achievement. Translation of this series into this style of film would really be something to behold.
Real talk though I want Djimon in as Paul's Fedaykin General or something
You are totally allowed to have your own hopes for the sequel :)
I wasn't serious lolYou are totally allowed to have your own hopes for the sequel :)
