What is 'Dune' about?
Frank Herbert's 1965 sci-fi epic "Dune" is one of the most influential science fiction novels to date. Villeneuve's two-part film adaptation of the novel follows the story of Paul Atreides (Chalamet) and House Atreides as they gain stewardship of the desert planet Arrakis and jockey with other noble houses for position in the echelons of the galaxy. Arrakis' sparse landscape is home to a material called "spice," which allows its users a range of enhanced abilities.
Paul and his mother, Lady Jessica (Ferguson), insert themselves into the political intrigues of Arrakis' sandworm-riding inhabitants, the Fremen, when disaster strikes House Atreides. There, they meet Chani (Zendaya) and Stilgar (Javier Bardem). The first film charts the family's arrival and subsequent discoveries on Arrakis—"Dune: Part Two" delves deeper into the world of the Fremen, House Atreides' rival House Harkonnen, and more.

Will there be a 'Dune: Part Three'?
Short answer: Yes! Probably. An adaptation of ""Dune Messiah," the sequel to Frank Herbert's "Dune," is in development, with Villeneuve at the helm. The "Dune" universe is wider than the world of House Atreides—while "Dune Messiah" continues the story, other prequel series written by Herbert's son, Bryan Herbert, and Kevin J. Anderson are also out there to explore.
