Dune : Part Twodelighted fans , critics , andnovelty Zea mays everta bucket gatherer , and apparently Warner Bros. wasthrilled with the outcome . But there ’s so far been no declaration regarding a production start onDune Messiah , take on to be the next ledger entry inDenis Villeneuve‘sDunetrilogy . The director needed a break afterDune : Part Two , of track , but he ’s also pulling back on the notion that the currentDunefilms starring Timothée Chalamet and Zendaya are part of a trilogy at all , in reality .
speak toVanity Fair , Villeneuve — who has dedicated years of his lifespan to adapting Frank Herbert novels so far , with a slew more pages leave to draw from — has distinctly reach the thing a heap of thought . “ First , it ’s crucial that the great unwashed understand that for me , it was really a diptych . It was really a twain of motion picture that will be the adaptation of the first Holy Scripture . That ’s done and that ’s finish , ” he aver . “ If I do a third one , which is in the writing process , it ’s not like a trilogy . It ’s strange to say that , but if I go back there , it ’s to do something that feels different and has its own identity . ”
It also go like Villeneuve is loath to frameDune Messiahas a specific box to check on his work schedule ; he told the magazine “ I like to do one matter at a time … I have too many things correctly now , ” and named the thirdDunemovie as just one of his atomic number 26 in the flaming at the present moment .

He is also more than open to the theme of someone else taking up theDuneafter he ’s wind up his time storytelling in its reality . “ Listen , ifDune Messiahhappens , it will have been many years for me on Arrakis , and I would love to do something else , ” he told Vanity Fair . “ I think that it would be a secure idea for me to make certain that , inMessiah , there are the cum in the labor if someone want to do something else afterwards , because they are beautiful books . They are more unmanageable to adapt . They become more and more esoteric . It ’s a fleck more tricky to adapt , but I ’m not exit the threshold . I will not do it myself , but it could happen with someone else . ”
