Villeneuve will then step away from the franchise which becomes 'esoteric' after that.
The Big Picture From the very beginning, Denis Villeneuve had a big plan for Dune. He wanted to turn Frank Herbert's original book into two epic movies—even if he never actually told Warner Bros. his plan to announce Dune as 'Part One' in its opening credits. Thankfully, after the first Dune movie was a qualified box office success in a post-pandemic world upon its release back in 2021, he got the approval to finish his adaptation with Dune: Part Two, which is coming out this year.
Speaking exclusively with Empire, Villeneuve admitted it would be his greatest dream if he was able to adapt Dune: Messiah and complete what he would view as his Dune trilogy. Villeneuve explained that Messiah, the direct follow-up to Frank Herbert's Dune novel, depicted Timothée Chalamet's Paul Atreides as an heroic figure, which was never the author's intention. Villeneuve plans to change that message, as he explains.
