Meanwhile, just a day after its release, Dune made it to the illegal sites. As per the reports, at least three major illegal streaming sites are hosting HD quality streaming copies of the film, with English, Danish, Spanish and Arabic subtitles. Along with that, thousands of users are also hosting and sharing copies on torrent sites.
Due to the HBO Max release of the film, the matters were already complicated. But now they have become worse because of the high-quality leak. Even though the film was released on the streaming service for paid users, Villeneuve encouraged the fans to view it in theatres.
