Denis Villeneuve’s Dune trilogy has always walked a fine line between staying faithful to Frank Herbert’s novels and making some on-screen changes. While the first two Dune films largely stayed true to the books, Dune 3 marks one of Villeneuve’s biggest career risks.
The upcoming film, starring Timothée Chalamet as Paul Atreides and Zendaya as Chani, is primarily based on Dune: Messiah. But according to reports, Villeneuve will also introduce elements of Children of Dune into the story.
That makes it clear that Dune 3’s story won’t stay focused only on Paul. Instead, it will also explore what happens to his family after nearly two decades of Dune: Part Two. But this change is only the beginning. The cast of Dune has revealed that the third movie is taking major departures from the books.
