The third trailer for the delayed Dune: Part Two has been revealed, teasing the outbreak of all-out war on the sandy planet, Arrakis, as forces from the Harkonnens and Atreides, as well as the Fremen and Sardaukar, clash in brutal combat. Add to that some sandworms, and you’ve got the makings of a truly epic showdown.
We also catch further glimpses of Christopher Walken’s scheming Shaddam IV, the Padishah Emperor of the Known Universe and also Austin Butler’s Feyd-Rautha Harkonnen.
Per Warner Bros.’ synopsis, “Dune: Part Two will explore the mythic journey of Paul Atreides as he unites with Chani and the Fremen while on a path of revenge against the conspirators who destroyed his family. Facing a choice between the love of his life and the fate of the known universe, he endeavours to prevent a terrible future only he can foresee.”
