Here's why Dune 2 could have a 'Renesmee' problem.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT It's no secret that Dune 2 has to navigate a huge casting issue, but one fan theory may have solved the sequel's potential problem. By and large, director Denis Villeneuve has assembled an impressive cast of characters for the Dune movie franchise.
A Time Jump Can Fix Dune 2's Alia Problem: Theory Explained There's no doubt that Dune 2's Alia problem threatens the tone and success of the film at large. Bringing a toddler with genius-level intellect to life on screen is nothing short of a nightmare scenario that could either be wholly unconvincing or, at worst, a laughable prospect. A book character describes Alia as one who "only pretends to be a little girl, [though] she has never been a little girl.
Casting Alia Could Be Dune 2's Biggest Issue In his 1984 adaptation of Dune, director David Lynch confronted the Alia Atreides problem head-on, casting child actor Alicia Witt in the part. While filming Dune, Witt turned eight years old. Although young, Witt had to play a character who was physically years younger, all while capturing the adult mind of the all-powerful Alia. Witt did the most with the incredibly challenging role.
A Time Jump Would Create More Dune 2 Problems Establishing a more significant time jump wouldn't just alleviate Dune 2's Alia casting issues; it would also quash the potential pitfall of the film over-relying on CGI. Instead of focusing on creating a more convincing omniscient toddler, the film could commit to casting a skilled pre-teen actor for the role. At the same time, however, a time jump would create more Dune 2 problems then it would solve.
