Sci-Fi Denis Villeneuve’s Dune Messiah

Realistically, if one is going to move, I’m betting it’ll be the one that isn’t even filming yet…
 
Doomsday will move. They want those Imax screens, and Imax know Dune is the better seller.
IMAX exclusivity is a very good point and I'd also add awards season as an argument for Dune's prospects to stay put, buuuut those were also true for Part Two and it still got delayed. Different circumstances but still.

I'd love it if you were right though.
 
Dune 3 could take Secret Wars's original May 2027 spot to give Villeneuve a little more time.
 
One of them will move. I am personally more excited for Dune Messiah
 
I think Legendary would be willing to bet on a Barbieheimer. They have the Imax locked up already.

The question becomes, is Marvel as invincible as they may think they are? And a film that is easily $400 million on the conservative side, handle actual competition. I honestly think Feige moved to Dec because they think they can make Avatar money, which is what the movie need. A barbieheimer would kill that. Because while it will still be doing well, it won't have the necessary screens to do it.

Just from a looks standpoint, that’s pretty good casting. They really do look like they both could be the offspring of both Timothée Chalamet’s and Zendaya’s characters, especially Ida. She looks so much like someone did a face mashup of both actors, it’s uncanny.

So is the idea that Paul is going to be off on his jihad, and come back to everyone being grown, or are we going to get a lot of mini-series style golden path conversations?

Also this makes it seem more like Children then Messiah.
 
Yeah, I am hesitant to believe a plot point like that at this stage.

May just be like how we saw Anya in Dune Part 2. That's what I am guessing. If true that is
 
Boy, those kids really correspond to each respective parent, huh?
 
I trust Deadline on this one.

Like I said, I imagine it will be like Anya in Dune Part 2. Paul sees them in visions, but they won't be born yet. But likely want them cast now so whoever takes over can start on Children of Dune ASAP

Like the miniseries.

I still assume they're born when this story starts. They seem to be skipping the original Leto II and I get the feeling one of the reasons Chani is upset and riding off into the desert is because she's pregnant at the end of Part 2. Though I prefer that did not skip Leto II.

Time will need to pass for the story this time. I do not think they can just pick it up where they left off or a few weeks later.
 
Chani was never going to be regulated to her role she had in Messiah. And obviously, time will pass so they can use Anya Taylor-Joy, so the Chani is pregnant at the end of Dune 2 is out, imo.

I do wonder if the Twins expanded roles will be part of how Paul sees when he loses his eyesight. That is something I would love to see. Villenueve already got weird with Alia and Jessica. And Paul did have waking visions with Jamis. Maybe even Pauls visions of the twins are why he seeks out Chani again.

And I wonder, what else will be shifted around. Will Jessica replace Mohiam? Will Alia replace Irulan in the role in the plot? How much setup for Children will Denis do?

So many moving pieces, that I am excited that I don't know what to full expect. All I know, is I've been looking forward to Hayt since the casting announcement. I gotta see how he can do it.
