Dune 2 Officially Announced, Will Get Theatrical Window

The film will be released in 2023.

By the might of the desert power, Dune: Part Two is officially on the way. Legendary announced today via Twitter that Denis Villeneuve‘s adaptation of the classic and hugely influential Frank Herbert novel will tell the complete story of the 1965 novel of the same name, with Villeneuve returning.

According to Deadline, a major reason point of negotiations was an exclusive theatrical window, without a day/date release on HBO Max. Villeneuve was one of the first filmmakers to criticize the decision to release films both in theaters and streaming, so it makes sense that he and Legendary would push for a pure theatrical window for the sequel.
