Directed by Denis Villeneuve, the movie continues the story of author Frank Herbert's space epic of the same name, as the story picks up right after the first instalment (2021), as Timothée Chalament's Paul Atreides joins forces with the Fremen and seeks revenge against the enemies who murdered his family.##
Originally scheduled to be released in November 2023 before getting pushed back to March 1, 2024, the movie star cast also includes Zendaya, Austin Butler, Florence Pugh, and Rebecca Ferguson, among others in key roles. ##

#DunePartTwo is not only Denis's magnum opus; it's the definitive sci-fi epic of a generation. A tragic tale of blind fanaticism & corruption. A spectacular, soulful, awe-inspiring masterclass of aesthetics & mood beautifully echoing Paul's turbulent journey. Left me speechless! pic.twitter.com/Vw61IKIGWr— Griffin Schiller (@griffschiller) February 15, 2024 ##
#DunePartTwo is SPECTACULAR. Villeneuve delivers a sweeping, majestic, epic journey into beautiful worlds that looks/feels/sounds astounding. Uniformally superb cast w/Chalamet impressing again, Rebecca Ferguson incredible. Cinema on its grandest scale. @warnerbros @dunemovie pic.twitter.com/55aJ5fEB0X— Scott J.

DUNE: PART TWO is an astonishing sci-fi epic that surpasses Part One in every single way. Denis Villeneuve has realized his dream of adapting Frank Herbert’s masterwork to the big screen with the depth and scale it deserves in a tour de force we rarely see anymore. Truly in awe… pic.twitter.com/GEjVL5SNUe— Matt Neglia (@NextBestPicture) February 16, 2024 ##
Blown away by #DunePartTwo. Found it even more immersive, tactile and emotional than Part One. The clarity, heft and scale of the action is staggering. For me, the whole occupies a rarified place alongside The Lord of the Rings as the definitive version of a seminal text.— Jordan Farley (@JordanFarley) February 15, 2024 ##
#DunePartTwo/ #Dune2 is jaw-dropping, breathtaking & wildly exhilarating. It’s an adrenaline rush to the head & heart, soaring in its spectacle-driven action sequences as much as it sings in its refined, evocative stillness.Timothée Chalamet & Zendaya turn in singular work.

#DunePartTwo is an audio/visual triumph on par with (relatively speaking) 'John Wick 4' or 'Avatar 2'. Strong performances, some clever action beats but, like DUNE 1, it's a 2.5-hour film that mostly runs out of story at the 90-minute mark and jogs in place til the climax. pic.twitter.com/lNBjHDL0l1— Scott Mendelson (@ScottMendelson) February 15, 2024 ##
#DunePartTwo is a cinematic masterpiece! This is a MUST-SEE on the biggest IMAX screen you can find. Parts of this movie made Me feel like I was in the film. This isn’t a movie; it’s an experience. Denis Villeneuve is a master storyteller. Get ready for an epic cinematic journey! pic.twitter.com/vTmsHSMk5A— Joseph Deckelmeier (@joedeckelmeier) February 15, 2024 ##
In an absolute masterclass of filmmaking, Denis Villeneuve exceeds the enormous hype surrounding #DunePartTwo (🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟). Seeing this film was such an experience & reminder of the utter power of Cinema. Dune Part Two is akin to a Dream Team of filmmaking: yes, Villeneuve is one… pic.twitter.com/I2Qv67PtXv— Cinema Tweets (@CinemaTweets1) February 15, 2024 ##
#DunePartTwo is even better than the first one. It’s not only bigger, but also more entertaining, action packed and the cast got even better with Austin Butler simply ruling. Cinematography is outstanding, one of the most gorgeous films ever made. Finally a wonderful 2024 film. pic.twitter.com/tZhnmoNoqw— Ricardo (@ricardoaymarr) February 16, 2024 ##
#DunePartTwo is a visually-monumental epic that never fails to immerse in its world. The narrative and its characters still beg for greater depth in this expansive mythos, but the action certainly goes much harder than Part One. Bring on Denis Villeneuve’s Dune: Messiah! pic.twitter.com/eY5I1tlj03— Jeff Nelson (@SirJeffNelson) February 15, 2024 ##
Liked #DunePartTwo FAR more than one. Thrilling and gorgeously filmed in equal measure. Austin Butler is the MVP alongside Rebecca Ferguson (again). Kudos on embracing the weirdness. I still don’t love this franchise but keen to see where it goes. pic.twitter.com/nCHQU4CfBO— Kristen Lopez (@kristenlopez88) February 15, 2024 ##
Having watched #DunePartTwo, I can say I have ridden a sandworm. It's a magical experience, and the faithful adaptation fans have been waiting for (albeit w/ some smart changes). A fascinating examination of zealotry & postcolonial politics wrapped in a breathtaking blockbuster. pic.twitter.com/pCWqBCbtNb— Eric Eisenberg (@eeisenberg) February 15, 2024 ##
#DunePartTwo is a giant epic, a masterclass of crafts from Greig Fraser’s exceptional photography to Patrice Vermette’s magnificent world building. Denis Villeneuve has delivered his magnus opus directing one of the best sci-fi films for generations to come. pic.twitter.com/Vvfs8YeFIi— Jazz Tangcay (@jazzt) February 15, 2024 ##
