This looks so great. I love that they are focusing on the prophecy and all that entails.

Didn't they say it's a two parter?

There was an interview where he said he wanted to adapt Messiah as a third film

https://nerdist.com/article/dune-movie-trilogy-messiah-denis-villeneuve/

Villeneuve revealed that he has envisioned not just a two-part adaptation of Dune, but its sequel novel Dune Messiah as well. In response to question by Screen Rant‘s Ash Crossan, Villeneuve said, “The thing I envision, the adaptation of two books, Dune and Dune Messiah. We decided to split the first novel in two, so now we are at three movies. Those movies are very long to make. For my mental sanity, I decided to just dream about three movies.”

Any chance for God Emperor of Dune?

I haven't read that one, but isn't that one of the super weird ones?

Yea, it's pretty weird but also perfectly inline. Granted it jumps forward like 3400 years or something, and Leto Atreides is a freaking worm..

I know some people don't like the books that Frank Herbert's son wrote, but I like all the lore that was in the Legends of Dune series and explanations why the Atreides and Harkonens are rivals.

Messiah is the sequel novel to Dune so Messiah movie would probably not be part 3... more like Dune 2 Part 1.
