after Dune: Part Two director Denis Villeneuve, who had great success in cinemas Duneand enjoyed a similar blockbuster response for its sequel – which he said would understandably happen takes a break from the world of Frank Herbert before ending the epic trilogy Christ of Dune.
But last fallhe says he realizes his desire to return to Arrakis is greater than his desire to take a break, and a new interview suggests that could happen very soon indeed.
To talk bandageVilleneuve was asked what his standout element was Dune experience so far. After he explained that it was a pinch-me moment Dune: Part Two completed—it’s just that he swallowed what he actually completed Dune adaptation, something he calls “an incredible privilege”—he admits that even after all that work, he longed for more.
“I think my biggest surprise about this is that I don’t want to run away from Arrakis. I’m still inspired to come back,” he said. “This is what surprised me the most. I felt it later The second partI need a break. I thought I’d like to go and write a few films or do a few things before I come back Christ of Dune. But the images that come to my mind are completely untouched by appetite. This is the biggest surprise. I still want to go back to Arrakis.”
He announced that he would be at the service of the return trip to Arrakis Christ of Dune –and after will be ready to continue. “From now on, it’s going to be health,” he joked.
There’s no timeline yet on when Christ of Dune remains to be seen, but we do know that in June 2024, Warner Bros. On December 18, 2026, Villeneuve planted the flag for the project, which was described only as an “event film.” (It is worth noting: From November 2024no more untitled Star Wars The movie is slated for that date as well.) Release dates are always subject to change, of course, but so far this is the best we have when the sandworms might rise again.
