I’ve made peace with the fact that Denis Villeneuve has altered DUNE to reflect his own ideas about how the story should be presented. The final trailer that was just released has fans clutching their pearls because it would appear that Villeneuve’s DUNE is going to deviate significantly from Frank Herbert’s novels.
And surprisingly, I’m okay with that. Some characters are missing from Messiah aka DUNE 3. Others—who fans were hoping to finally see realized on screen (cough, Edric, cough) in a way only Villeneuve can do—may remain enigmas And still others are seeimgly doing things or behaving in ways that directly contradict the books. But will it be great cinema? Of course it will. Of that I am certain.
In any case, we have only about six weeks to wait until we find out for sure
