The second instalment of Denis Villeneuve's adaptation of the epic 1965 sci-fi novel, starring Timothée Chalamet, Zendaya and Austin Butler.
Arrakis, to an off-worlder, is a dangerous and hostile planet, covered in unforgiving sand, where every drop of moisture is the key to life versus death - not to mention the threat of the gigantic Sandworms.
To the natives, it's an opportunity: a place that could be an oasis.
Paul Atreides (Chalamet) and his mother, the Bene Gesserit witch Jessica (Rebecca Ferguson), unite with the Fremen, fighting against the Harkonens to bring justice to the Atriedes, the Fremen, and the whole of the solar system.
Starting up where Dune Part 1 left off, Denis Villeneuve's long-awaited sequel brings back Timothée Chalamet, Zendaya, Rebecca Ferguson and Javier Bardem, and sees Austin Butler, Florence Pugh and Christopher Walken added to the already star-studded cast, in what is likely to be this generation's seminal sci-fi epic.
