Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 27 Oct, 19:58 · Archive

Warner Bros has released the final trailer for Dune: Part Three, the concluding film in Denis Villeneuve's adaptation of Frank Herbert's sci-fi novels. The film is set roughly 17 years after the events of Part Two, according to Villeneuve, as Paul Atreides faces the consequences of his rise to power.

The trailer reveals that an assassination plot is brewing against Atreides, with Chani involved. In one scene, Atreides uses 'the voice', a specialised technique that allows him to control others, to interrogate Princess Irulan, who warns him: 'There will be an assassination attempt. Chani's involved.' As armies gather and war breaks out on land and in the sky, Scytale says: 'We found a way to neutralise the emperor and end this madness.'

Atreides acknowledges his moral descent, saying: 'After years of combat, I've become the oppressor Chani had sworn to fight.' The film sees an all-out conflict emerge as Chani, Princess Irulan and others attempt to fight back against Atreides's grip on power. Jason Momoa returns to the franchise as Hayt, a cloned version of his character Duncan Idaho, who was deceased.
