Dennis Villeneuve’s Dune and Dune: Part 2 was a massive success at the box office. Based on Frank Herbert’s novels, the first two movies adapted the first novel in the series and focused on the character of Paul Atreides.
Dune has seen various adaptations over the years, but Villeneuve’s take has elevated the sci-fi/fantasy epic into a true Hollywood blockbuster. With Dune: Part Two performing impressively at the box office, grossing $714.4 million, a third film was evident. Moreover, the third chapter in the series will adapt the second novel, Dune: Messiah, and be a perfect conclusion to Paul Atreides’ journey.
Here’s everything you need to know about Dune: Part Three.

The director said, “As Herbert did with Dune: Messiah, I think doing something completely different would be great. The story takes place about 12 years after where we left the characters at the end of Part Two. Their journey and story are different this time, and that’s why I always say that while it’s the same world, it’s a new film with new circumstances.”
Regarding the filming start date, Villeneuve shared the potential filming of Dune: Part Three in 2025. However, Warner Bros. has not yet officially green-lit Dune: Part Three but will likely give the go-ahead given Dune: Part Two’s positive success. Besides, Legendary has already confirmed the development of the Part Three script.
