Juicy Details About The New “Dune”

Rejoice! Frank Herbert’s “Dune” comes out on big screens later this year. Vanity Fair has recently shown us a lot of new information about the fresh adaptation of Dune, including some movie stills and what to expect in the future, so let’s take a look at the juiciest details!

What’s it about?

In the distant future, humankind has built an intergalactic empire, and entire planets are owned by a bunch of noble families. After the robot uprising, people abandoned electronic devices and developed extrasensory abilities. The most valuable resource in the galaxy is the “spice,” which allows people to send ships through space wormholes or something like that. The arid planet Arrakis, aka Dune, is the only source of this invaluable resource, but to collect the spice, you first need to survive the climate, and gigantic worms living in the sands. The rest is politics and epic family drama, but people seem to love it. The best part of Dune is the setting.

Who’s in it?

The Dune (2020) is directed by Denis Villeneuve, who’d created gorgeous movies like “The Arrival,” “Blade Runner 2049” and “Sicario.” Almost all of his films were highly appreciated by both critics and viewers, even though some flopped financially.

There he is, directing and stuff.
