The film tells the story of Paul Atreides, “a brilliant and gifted young man born into a great destiny beyond his understanding, who must travel to the most dangerous planet in the universe to ensure the future of his family and his people. As malevolent forces explode into conflict over the planet’s exclusive supply of the most precious resource in existence—a commodity capable of unlocking humanity’s greatest potential—only those who can conquer their fear will survive.”
Dune (2021) stars Timothée Chalamet, Rebecca Ferguson, Oscar Isaac, Josh Brolin, Stellan Skarsgård, Dave Bautista, and Zendaya.
The marvelous adaptation of Frank Herbert’s bestselling sci-fi novel of the same name dropped in theatres and on HBO Max about a month ago, quickly garnering praise from fans of the book.
Dune: Part One adapted the first half of the novel and has officially been renewed for Part 2 following the film’s success.
