What is ‘Dune: Part Two’ about?

The sequel follows on from where the last dropped off. Paul Atredis (Timothée Chalamet) finds himself hiding from and plotting the downfall of the Harkonnen, the house that destroyed his family and usurped his descendants to the ruling house of the planet Arrakis. A desert planet in which the most valuable commodity in all the universe, spice, is sourced.

He plots this revenge with the help of the Fremen, the natives of Arrakis, and the newly-found love of his life Cheni (Zendaya). As his visions of a horrific future haunt his dreams, prophecies and characters alike continue to tell Paul he is the chosen one, the one to save them all, he finds that he must choose between fate and love, revenge and his destiny.

Who is in ‘Dune: Part Two’?

You don’t get a much more star-studded cast than the one in this film. Dune: Part One was already packed to the brim, with Timothée Chalamet (Call Me By Your Name, Wonka) of course leading the cast as Paul Atredis. Rebecca Ferguson (The Mission Impossible franchise, The White Queen) and Oscar Isaac (Star Wars: The Force Awakens, Moonknight) starred as his parents, Lady Jessica and Duke Leto Atreides. Stellan Skarsgård (Mama Mia, Thor) took the villain helm as an unrecognisably grotesque Duke Vladimir Harkonnen. Superheroes and supervillains also joined the cast with Aquaman himself Jason Mamoa and Avenger’s Endgame actor Josh Brolin.

Dune: Part Two has now also thrown some of young Hollywood’s brightest stars into the mix, with Florence Pugh (Little Women, Black Widow), Austin Butler (Elvis, Masters of the Sky) and Anya Taylor-Joy (The Queen’s Gambit, Split) joining the cast. Perhaps not young Hollywood but definitely an icon, Christopher Walken (Pulp Fiction, Deer Hunter) also joins playing the ominous Emperor in his addition to the series.

Last but not least Javier Bardem (Skyfall, No Country for Old Men) and Zendaya (Euphoria, Spiderman: Homecoming) take on bigger roles in this sequel, as the Fremen with Zendaya playing Chani, the love-interest of Paul. Many were disappointed by the much-loved actress’s measly seven minutes of screen time in the first part, but rest assured, Dune: Part Two puts this right as she is thrown into all the action like the best of them.

Is ‘Dune: Part Two’ based on a book?

Not only is Dune: Part Two based on a book, but it is actually part of a whopping 23-part sci-fi literary series. Both Dune: Part One and Two are based on the first book in the series, written in 1965 by Frank Herbert as part of an original six-part series. Since he died in 1986 the world of Dune has expanded out into a whole host of sequels, prequels and spin-offs. With this film series by French Director Denis Villeneuve concluding in just three movies, we suggest you get reading to find out what happens next. Read our piece here to find where you can get every last Dune book, yes all 23 of them.
