The Dune franchise started in 2022 with Denis Villeneuve’s Dune: Part 1. Starring Timothee Chalamet, Rebecca Ferguson, Oscar Isaac, Josh Brolin, Stellan Skarsgård, Dave Bautista, Bardem, Zendaya, and Florence Pugh among others, the two movies became massive hits. And while Villeneuve will complete his Dune trilogy with the concluding Dune: Messiah, the studios have something else for us to feast on until the third movie is ready.
Dune: Prophecy [Credit: Max]Legendary Entertainment, the studio behind the franchise, will soon release a prequel series – Dune: Prophecy, for Warner Bros. on their streaming platform, Max. Based on Brian Herbert’s Sistethood of Dune, this show follows the Empire thousands of years before Paul Atreides is born, even before the Bene Gesserit is formed. And while this is an exciting project for fans, there is one thing people are sceptical about.

We've seen David Lynch's psychedelic take on the first "Dune" novel in his 1984 film, we witnessed the precipitous rise of Paul Atreides through director Denis Villeneuve's two epic and complex blockbusters, but we've never seen anything quite like this. Amid all the wars and politicking and worm-riding, the mysterious sect of women pulling the strings behind the curtain known as the Bene Gesserit have hardly received the spotlight that they probably deserve. Until "Part Two" introduced us to Léa Seydoux's Lady Margot Fenring, Rebecca Ferguson's Lady Jessica and Charlotte Rampling's Reverend Mother were the only two members of this religious order that viewers ever actually met.

"Vanishing Point" isn't exactly a mainstream classic, but for a portion of moviegoers who like to see cars go fast and people do drugs, it's pretty much unmissable. Based on that description alone, it makes sense that the cult film's audience grew when it was directly referenced in Quentin Tarantino's 2007 road slasher film "Death Proof." Other directors who are major fans of the film include Edgar Wright and Steven Spielberg, who once told Entertainment Weekly it was one of his favorite movies.
The 1971 film didn't feature many stars, but did include a handful of actors who would become famous for other projects in the years following the film. Cleavon Little, who played radio DJ Super Soul in the film, went on to star in Mel Brooks' "Blazing Saddles" three years later, while actress Charlotte Rampling, who was Oscar nominated for her work in "45 Years" in 2016, apparently appeared as...

“If we go back, it needs to be real, it needs to be relevant," the filmmaker told Empire in a recent interview.

Anya Taylor-Joy makes a very brief appearance in Dune: Part Two, but if and when Denis Villeneuve returns to helm his adaptation of Dune: Messiah, the Furiosa star will have a much more substantial role.
If you haven't seen the movie yet, spoilers follow.
In Part One, we learn that Paul Atreides' mother, the Bene Gesserit Lady Jessica, is pregnant with the late Duke Leto's child. When the Fremen take in the survivors of the Harkonnen massacre, Jessica agrees to become the tribe's new Reverend Mother (she isn't really given a choice) and is "persuaded" to drink the Water of Life (a blue substance that's been extracted from a juvenile sandworm).
This gives Jessica incredible foresight and knowledge of previous generations, while also awakening similar abilities in her unborn daughter, who begins to communicate with and seemingly influence her mother's actions.

Universal Pictures has found its director for the high-priority Leonardo da Vinci film. “All of Us Strangers” helmer Andrew Haigh has signed on to direct and adapt Walter Isaacson’s acclaimed biography of the Renaissance man.
Based on thousands of pages from Leonardo da Vinci’s notebooks and new discoveries about his life and work, Isaacson’s book became one of the hottest literary properties when it hit the market in 2017. At the time, Universal was outbid by Paramount, which developed the project with Leonardo DiCaprio for years before putting it in turnaround. Universal quietly picked it up last year. The runaway bestseller connects da Vinci’s transcendent art, which includes the Mona Lisa painting hanging in the Louvre, to his trailblazing science — and shows how his genius was driven by an insatiable curiosity, careful observation and a whimsical imagination. The Italian icon lived from 1452-1519 during the height of the Renaissance,...

Fred Schepisi is set to direct Israel-based thriller “The Dimona Affair,” Variety has learned exclusively.
The project is based on the story of a whistleblower who claimed Israel was building a nuclear weapons program. (The country has always denied it has nuclear weapons).
After giving The Sunday Times of London a detailed interview about the program in the 1980s, causing an international scandal, “low level” Israeli nuclear technician Mordechai Vanunu fled the country. He was then reportedly lured to Rome by a female Israeli secret service agent in a honeytrap operation where he was kidnapped and repatriated to Israel. Vanunu eventually stood trial for espionage and treason before being convicted and jailed.
Schepisi, whose last feature project was “Words and Pictures” starring Clive Owen and Juliette Binochein 2013, is set to direct from a script penned by screenwriter and investigative journalist Morrie Rosmarin.

Yet, as technology has caught up to our collective imaginations, a lot of would-be fantastical representations of the future have come to resemble our current hellscape but either slightly shinier and/or dingier and with A.I. that's capable of more than cranking out fake YouTube film trailer screencaps of men standing behind nude women. Even movies set thousands of years from now on distant planets tend to be about the all-too-topical concern of young white twinks embracing fascism (much to the dismay of their progressive girlfriends).
As dour and sometimes surreal as these movies are, they're also excellent vehicles for filmmakers to talk about the biggest issues of the day and, in doing so, perhaps make them feel just...

What Do We Know About Dune Prophecy? More than you may think. With the second part of Denis Villeneuve’s adaptation of Frank Herbert’s classic science fiction novel a critical and box office success, it is going to be several years before we see the next feature film in the series, Dune Messiah. Luckily, production on the small-screen prequel /spin-off was concurrent with Dune: Part Two which means before the end of the year we are going to return to the fictional realms of Arrakis, Geidi Prime, and more via Max.
While not much in the way of footage has made its way online, there have been quite a few reveals about Dune Prophecy, so let’s jump in and discuss.
Denis Villeneuve is not directing any episodes
The original plan was for Villeneuve to helm the series in addition to his big screen directorial duties. The series, originally announced as Dune: The Sisterhood,...

Among the various complex characters in Frank Herbert’s Dune novels, Lady Jessica, played by Rebecca Ferguson, is pivotal to the legacy of the Fremen and her son Paul Atreides. A powerful member of the Bene Gesserit also known as the Sisterhood, Lady Jessica was trained in the mystic ways of the all-woman clan by the Reverent Mother Gaius Helen Mohiam.

But past history between the two characters in the prequel novels indicate a connection that goes way deeper than that of a student and mentor relationship. While this dark and heartbreaking narrative may possibly not see the light of day in Denis Villeneuve’s Dune 3, it is an arc that defines certain important aspects of both characters.

Warner Bros. and Legendary’s Dune: Part Two has wasted no time in proving its potential earning power at the box office.
Denis Villeneuve’s sequel — sporting an A-list cast led by Timothée Chalamet and Zendaya — posted an opening day gross of $32.1 million at Friday’s North American box office, including $12 million in previews. That puts the movie on course to open to at least $72 million to $75 million, more than double the first film ($40 million) and the top start of the year to date.
Rival studios believe Dune 2 could open to $77 or $78 million; either way, it’s a needed jolt for the box office and the sci-fi genre, which can be a tough sell. Dune 2 sports stellar reviews and nabbed an A CinemaScore, versus an A- for the first. Rivals were even more bullish on Friday in suggesting $80 million-plus.

Warning: This article contains spicy spoilers for "Dune: Part Two."
Words are everything in the story of "Dune." Empires rise and fall based on a single message sent from the desert world of Arrakis, as we see late in "Part Two" when Paul Atreides (Timothée Chalamet) reaches through the stars to challenge the very might of the Padishah Emperor (Christopher Walken). In author Frank Herbert's massively influential 1965 novel, meanwhile, almost every chapter is preceded by short excerpts written by Princess Irulan (whom we finally meet in the sequel, played by Florence Pugh) laying out assorted sayings, family history, and other character-specific insights detailing the legend of Paul Atreides. At the very end of the book, Herbert even includes an exhaustive glossary, laying out a "Terminology of the Imperium" for readers who might have found themselves adrift at sea amid the complicated world-building, terminology, and other incredibly nerdy mythology compiled by the sci-fi writer.

This article contains major spoilers for Dune: Part Two and minor spoilers for the next book in the series, Dune: Messiah.
When the story of Dune: Part Two ends, Timothée Chalamet’s Paul Atreides has everything you might want in the universe: the love of his life, the betrothed hand of a princess—who, for the record, is not the same woman—and the literal throne to the galaxy. There’s all that and more, so why does the second half of Denis Villeneuve’s adaptation of this iconic novel end on such a feeling of despair and doom?
Well, the legions of Fremen fanatics unleashing a holy war—or “jihad” as it’s called in Frank Herbert’s original text—plays a big part in that equation. As does the justifiable rage and sense of betrayal Chani (Zendaya) feels upon hearing her lover propose a political alignment with the...

Sci-fi blockbuster Dune: Part Two opens in 721 venues this weekend, carrying the hopes of many UK-Ireland cinemas after a slow start to 2024.
Denis Villeneuve’s sequel is Warner Bros’ fourth-widest opening of all time in the territory, after last year’s Aquaman And The Lost Kingdom (749) and Barbie (724), and 2022’s Elvis (746).
It is opening on 62 sites more than Dune, which started in 659 venues in October 2021. That film began with a £4.8m weekend at a £7,210 average, dethroning James Bond title No Time To Die. It went on to a £22.1m total – a decent result in a market still feeling the effects of the pandemic.

Denis Villeneuve’s long-awaited Dune: Part Two is off to a promising start at the foreign box office, where it opened to $5.2 million on Wednesday from its first 13 markets. Including previews, the running foreign tally is $7.6 million.
The Legendary and Warner Bros. film will debut in a raft of additional countries today before playing in a total of 71 territories by the weekend. France led on Wednesday with $1.4 million, followed by South Korea with $1.1 million.
Dune 2 opens everywhere in North America on Friday following Thursday evening previews. Tracking suggests it could sport a global opening of $150 million to $175 million, although Warners is being more cautious and suggests closer to $140 million. The box office could use a jump-start after a dismal early winter prompted by a slowdown of product due to strike-related delays.
Overseas, tracking and advance ticket sales suggest the tentpole could start off with $85 million. That doesn’t include several key markets,...

This article contains mild spoilers from the Dune novel.
Director Denis Villeneuve faced many dilemmas when crafting the finale of his two-part Dune adaptation. Frank Herbert’s narrative is sprawling, and the climactic confrontation between Paul Atreides (Timothée Chalamet) and the forces of the Emperor (Christopher Walken) was full of landmines in terms of excessive exposition and outdated sensibilities. In fact, as last lines of a famous book go, we’re not sure if “we who carry the name of concubine—history will call us wives” would have flown for modern audiences buying tickets to this weekend’s Dune: Part Two. So it is not a spoiler to tell you Villeneuve did not include that bit of dialogue in his movie.
“No,” the director agrees when we bring up that problematic sign-off, which shifts some of the story’s strongest characters back into traditional female roles. “It’s a book...

Dune: Part Two is finally here, and movie theater operators couldn’t be happier.
After enduring one of the worst early winters in years (outside of the pandemic), theaters are banking on the Legendary and Warner Bros. tentpole to usher in a steady stream of event fare that was delayed by last year’s labor strikes. Year-to-date, the box office is running 18 percent behind last year, and more than 38 percent behind 2019.
Legendary made the difficult decision to delay the movie’s release from last fall to now so that Timothée Chalamet and Zendaya would be available to publicize the movie and help broaden out the audience. Both have sway with younger viewers.
In terms of Dune: Part Two’s potential this weekend, Warner Bros. and Legendary are being conservative in estimating a $65 million-plus domestic opening (their caution is understandable, since it runs two hours and 46 minutes). But tracking services have it reaching $74 million,...
