Though the movie's ending takes some liberties from Herbert's book, it should leave audiences begging for a third movie.
In the movie's thrilling conclusion, Paul drinks the Water of Life, which is supposed to bring death to any man who consumes it.
Sure, they might stay together if Villeneuve gets to make "Dune 3," but it could be a while before that happens.
AdvertisementIn late 2023, he said at a press conference in South Korea that the screenplay for the third movie, which would be based on Herbert's book "Dune Messiah," was "almost finished."
But even if "Dune: Part Two" becomes a box office success, the director will not hustle to close the trilogy.
