Villeneuve Eyes Third 'Dune' Film Despite 'Part Two' Delay

Director Denis Villeneuve has expressed interest in adapting the next Dune novel, Dune Messiah, into a third film to complete his trilogy.
Villeneuve aims to explore the idea of Paul Atreides as a warning rather than a hero in the potential third installment.
The second Dune film has been pushed to 2024 due to industry strikes, but Villeneuve still has plans for completing the trilogy.
Fans hope stars like Timothée Chalamet, Zendaya and Rebecca Ferguson will return for a third film based on Dune Messiah.
Villeneuve acknowledges the later Dune books become more esoteric and does not plan to adapt the full series.
