Dune is one story told in two parts. Dune Messiah is the controversial second book in the Paul Atreides story arc. Children of Dune shifts to his baby sister and twin children with Leto ll being the main protoganist throughout the remaining books.

[@webx135]

I just imagine working under Denis. He seems to have such an intelligent and deeply loving demeanor. I also love what they did with Chani. She had a LOT of depth, and the conflict was very powerful. Throughout the movie there were moments when I be watching Paul but basically seeing text saying "Chani did not like this. -1". (After the "Stilgar loves this. +2") I wish we had more time to see Austin Butler in action. He really stole his scenes, even beside a major scene-stealing veteran like Stellan. Honestly, I felt a little bad for Dave Bautista, because I know he's trying to break out of roles where he's the big brute. It's also EXTREMELY impressive how they pulled off the tone progression. They did a great job of power scaling Paul, and having you root for him and cheer for his success, while simultaneously building a knot in your gut from the tragic nature of it. You can simultaneously feel his ascent and his descent.

Pairing it with the landscape of desert is a blending of a perfect concealer to a face

At first, Florence Pugh was the cast member I was looking forward to seeing the most. After watching her in Black Widow, I've basically been in love with her ever since. But in the end, the one actor I enjoyed watching the most was Anya Taylor Joy. It may be surprising to hear that considering how she only made a cameo appearance, but she's up there with Florence Pugh for my favorite actors of all time, and I like the story of how she appeared in the film. Apparently she wanted to be in the film desperately and Denis Villeneuve wanted her to be in it just as much as she did. However, he didn't think it would be possible considering she was already committed to being in Australia for Furiosa at the time, but she fully insisted that she could easily make it happen despite her scheduling at the time. She kept asking her agents about Dune while she was filming Furiosa, but it wasn't until she returned home from filming that Villeneuve said they could still make it work as long as she left for Namibia immediately. The funny thing about this whole story is that her cameo in the film was not only kept a secret from the general public but also the entire cast and most of the crew members who weren't in Namibia for the scene. Because of this, she had to ask Villeneuve to inform everybody in the film about her appearance few weeks before the premiere in London as she didn't want any of them to see her there and wonder why she was with them. The fact that she had to beg the director to do whatever he could to include her in the picture and then went from filming one movie to another almost immediately shows you how dedicated she was to her work. But then again, you would be to when it comes to a film like Dune. I can't wait to see her in Dune: Messiah.
