Dune: Part Two is a 2024 American epic science fiction film directed and produced by Denis Villeneuve, who co-wrote the screenplay with Jon Spaihts. It is the sequel to Dune (2021), the second of a two-part adaptation of the 1965 novel Dune by Frank Herbert.
The film follows Paul Atreides (Timothee Chalamet) as he integrates further with the Fremen of Arrakis, the desert planet. He forms a closer bond with Chani (Zendaya) and undergoes trials to become a full-fledged Fremen, taking the name Muad'Dib. Meanwhile, House Harkonnen, vengeful for the death of Duke Leto Atreides, escalates its attacks on Arrakis and the Fremen.
Paul struggles with visions of a holy war in his name, a potential consequence of his growing power. As he develops his leadership among the Fremen, the Padishah Emperor (Christopher Walken) and his advisors become concerned about the spice monopoly slipping from their control. They strategize their response to the Harkonnen failure and the rise of Muad'Dib.
On the brink of leading the Fremen into war against the Harkonnens, Paul sets the stage for a massive conflict that will determine the fate of Arrakis, the spice trade, and the galactic balance of power.
