Paul Atreides has seen his future in Dune: Part Two, and that future scares him.Speaking to Empire on his relationship with actor Timothée Chalamet, director Denis Villeneuve recalled, “when I was doing Part One, I kept saying to Timothée, ‘No, you’re just Paul.’ Because he was reaching for Muad’Dib. He was looking forward to becoming that hero and I was pushing the brakes.” Though Paul’s royal title and unique abilities grant him a level of power in his upcoming Part Two battle against House Harkonnen, Villeneuve pointed out that, “he knows that if he does so, it will create an astronomical amount of violence and he will become a kind of dictator. He’s trying to find a way to avoid that ominous future – that’s the burden upon his shoulders.”Furthermore, Villeneuve drew a line between Paul’s experiences in his first, Oscar-winning Dune adaptation and its sequel, describing the two stories as “a young man discovering a world” and a “war movie” respectively. Key to winning this war is Paul’s relationship with the Fremen communities on planet Arrakis, including his “love story” with Chani (Zendaya) and how this romance benefits their respective goals. “How Paul will gain her trust, how she will open her heart to him, and how they will find a way to free Chani’s world from the Harkonnen grip,” he explained, adding, “It’s a much more emotional movie.”RELATED: Dune: Part Two Star Praises Austin Butler’s ‘Chilling’ Performance
