Just days after its release, Dune Part One is officially getting its
sequel. Dune Part Two will complete the story of the first novel by
Frank Herbert and will be released in October 2023, Legendary
Pictures announced on Tuesday.

The Dune sequel was always part of director Denis Villeneuve's plans,
but until now the studio hadn't officially greenlit the sequel. This
means that nothing from Part Two has been filmed yet, but the
production is likely to start back up in the near future with most of
its original pieces in place.

Villeneuve will return for the sequel, while much of the cast --
including Timothee Chalamet as Paul Atreides, Rebecca Ferguson as
Lady Jessica Atreides, Zendaya as Chani, and Stellan Skarsgard as
baron Vladimir Harkonnen -- are expected to return. As for who else
might be back, that will have to remain a surprise for the film to
reveal.

Dune Part One is in theaters now, as well as on HBO Max, where it
will be available for subscribers to stream until 30 days after its
initial release.
