After the tremendous three hours of spice, sandworms, and Sardaukar that is Dune: Part Two, you may find yourself with some questions. Given the film’s cataclysmic ending, your biggest one might just be, “What in the world comes next?” Or, “When will director Denis Villeneuve start shooting a third Dune movie, because I need it pronto?”
Unlike Paul Atreides (Timothée Chalamet), I cannot see through the storms of time and give you any foresight on the timeline of Villeneuve’s next moves. (Although he has said in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter that the script for a third Dune is almost done.) As Mashable’s resident Dune-head, what I can do is offer up some insight as to why Paul goes full space despot, clarify any of the more granular questions you may have, and dig into what we can expect from an adaptation of Frank Herbert’s Dune Messiah.
From Paul’s fight against Feyd-Rautha Harkonnen (Austin Butler) to Chani’s (Zendaya) game-changing final decision, let’s get into the ending of Dune: Part Two.
