The upcoming sci-fi thriller, directed by Denis Villeneuve (Arrival) and (Blade Runner 2049), is based on the 1965 novel by author Frank Herbert.
"The trouble begins when stewardship of Arrakis is transferred by the Emperor from the Harkonnen Noble House to House Atreides. The Harkonnens don’t want to give up their privilege, though, and through sabotage and treachery they cast young Duke Paul Atreides out into the planet’s harsh environment to die."
It continues:
"He might be the end product of a very long-term genetic experiment designed to breed a super human; he might be a messiah. His struggle is at the center of a nexus of powerful people and events, and the repercussions will be felt throughout the Imperium.”
With the movie set to hit theatres (or at home on demand) in December, fans have been getting a first look at some of the characters, via Vanity Fair.

This is one that fans are really excited for.
She plays a "mystery woman named Chani, who haunts Paul in his dreams as a vision with glowing blue eyes."

He plays Stilgar in the film.
He plays Gurney Halleck, the seasoned war master who was famously played by Patrick Stewart in the 1984 film adaptation of the book.
He plays Duncan Idaho, but this picture is giving some serious Kill Bill vibez.
"omg jason momoa is in dune too :0 this movie is gonna be amazing," tweeted another.
The hunky Aquaman star first debuted a rather unique one at this year's Superbowl.
For him, this hilariously meant taking off his "fake" muscles.
Gorgeous.
In another clip, he failed at lifting weights with his wife, Lisa Bonet.
The video was classic Momoa. Good looks, amazing humor.
Dune is set to release on December 18th.
But for now, you can check out the director and some of the casts' interview with Vanity Fair!
