Green light for Dune 2

Yesterday, Legendary Entertainment tweeted and officially confirmed that the movie Dune, which can be seen in our cinemas for about a week, will get a sequel. The decision is, of course, one of expectations, as director Denis Villeneuve was adamant in interviews before and after the release of Dune: The Sand Planet that his adaptation of Frank Herbert's novel would have two parts. And what will it be about in the sequel? "Dune 1" ends with Paul Atreides, the central messianic figure of the story, seeking refuge from his enemies in the desert, and in "Dune 2" he will take revenge on the noble families who murdered his father and return to power.

This is only the beginning...

Thank you to those who have experienced @dunemovie so far, and those who are going in the days and weeks ahead. We're excited to continue the journey! pic.twitter.com/mZj68Hnm0A

That the story needs a second part, a conclusion, is not only logical from the point of view of the story as such, but also financially. The film grossed $225 million in its first weekend at the box office, the most of any Warner Bros. film released this year. And such a "cow" needs to be milked, right?
