Denis Villeneuve Wants to Make Third Dune Movie Based on Dune Messiah

Director Denis Villeneuve has reflected on future plans for the Dune universe after the release of Dune: Part Two.After the triumph of 2021’s Dune and ahead of the arrival of the eagerly awaited Dune: Part Two, the acclaimed director has opened up about his aspirations to bring more of Frank Herbert’s universe to the silver screen. In an interview with Empire Magazine, the filmmaker hinted that the possibility of a third installment in his epic Dune adaptation saga is not completely out of question. If further developments take place, the potential project would be based on Dune Messiah, Herbert’s direct sequel to the original novel.Discussing the potential storyline, Villeneuve noted, “Dune Messiah was written in reaction to the fact that people perceived Paul Atreides as a hero, which is not what he wanted to do. My adaptation is closer to his idea that it’s actually a warning.” Citing a decline in quality of the subsequent novels, he clarified that if Dune: Part Three does happen, it will surely definitely mark the end of his intended trilogy. He said, “After that the books become more… esoteric. I will say, there are words on paper.”RELATED: Dune 2 Will Get an Extended Run in IMAX Theaters
