And how would he do it? Simple: by also adapting &#8220;Dune Messiah,&#8221; the official sequel to Dune that Herbert wrote about Paul Atreides&#8217; reign after achieving his revenge.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed-Youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Dune: Part Two | Official Trailer 2\" width=\"840\" height=\"473\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/_YUzQa_1RCE?start=4&#038;feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">&#8220;Making a trilogy would be my dream,&#8221; he said<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;<strong>Making a trilogy would be my dream<\/strong>,&#8221; the director explained in the interview. &#8220;Dune Messiah was written in response to the fact that people perceived <a href=\"https:\/\/en.softonic.com\/articles\/dune-2-new-characters\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Paul Atreides<\/a> as a hero, which is not what [Herbert] wanted to do. My adaptation [of Dune] is closer to his idea that it&#8217;s actually a warning.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In this way,<strong> it would not only allow Villeneuve to complete his story but also to clearly reflect Herbert&#8217;s vision of his books<\/strong>. However, Herbert wrote much more after this book\u2026 although that&#8217;s something the director is not as interested in: &#8220;After that, the books become more\u2026 esoteric,&#8221; he says. So the third part would be his perfect culmination, and he has also explained that there are &#8220;words on paper,&#8221; so it&#8217;s not just a distant dream for Villeneuve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/sft\/articles\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/08\/dune-2-3-1-1024x576-1-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-246182\" srcset=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/08\/dune-2-3-1-1024x576-1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/08\/dune-2-3-1-1024x576-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/08\/dune-2-3-1-1024x576-1-768x433.jpg 768w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/08\/dune-2-3-1-1024x576-1-800x450.jpg 800w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/08\/dune-2-3-1-1024x576-1-664x374.jpg 664w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/08\/dune-2-3-1-1024x576-1-238x134.jpg 238w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/08\/dune-2-3-1-1024x576-1-436x246.jpg 436w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/08\/dune-2-3-1-1024x576-1-370x208.jpg 370w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/08\/dune-2-3-1-1024x576-1-304x170.jpg 304w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/08\/dune-2-3-1-1024x576-1-18x10.jpg 18w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/08\/dune-2-3-1-1024x576-1-1200x675.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/08\/dune-2-3-1-1024x576-1-150x84.jpg 150w, https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/auto-mapping-folder\/sites\/3\/2023\/08\/dune-2-3-1-1024x576-1.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The <a href=\"https:\/\/en.softonic.com\/articles\/dune-2-florence-pugh\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">second part of Dune<\/a> will premiere on March 15, 2024<\/strong>, experiencing a significant delay due to the ongoing Hollywood studio strikes.
