What you need to know:
We already have the next film plans for Denis Villeneuve.
We know that the existence or durability of a franchisedepends to a large extent on the box office success of the films. If the first one goes well, a second one gets the green light and so on. And with the adaptation of dune from Warner Bros. under the direction of Denis Villeneuve was no exception.
The first episode of will be released in 2021 dune with legendary production. From the beginning, it was announced that the second part was part of the plan, but it would be made if the film did well at the box office. Exceeded expectations and they announced that the production of the next film would become a reality.
After some delays in release due to the actors’ strike, Dune: Part Two The premiere took place in February 2024. Once again the box office exceeded all expectations. And so it was confirmed is started Dune 3 with the return of Villeneuve with Legendary. Here we tell you more:
Dune 3
Production details have not yet been announced. Dune 3 The thing is, some media outlets like Variety confirmed that Denis Villeneuve met with Legendary to put the entire plan into action. However. This is great news because the end of the second part is open for a continuation of the story… which is in line with the Canadian director’s original plans.
Which raises doubts about the entire plan Dune 3is the fact that the same Villeneuve said he wanted the schedule in the books to be respected in productions. That means the third Dune would be released in about 10 years.
Denis Villeneuve’s next project
But the good news is not just that we will have a third of that dune, which will certainly be bigger and more epic, as its director usually does. But Villeneuve already has his next film project on his radar, and it will be a new adaptation.
According to the same media Villeneuve sat down with Legendary to talk about the film adaptation of Nuclear War: A Scenario, a work by Annie Jacobsen and a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize. The fact is that Legendary owns the rights to this non-fiction book and it seems that the Canadian filmmaker is negotiating with him produce, adapt and/or manage the project.
Nuclear War: A Scenario tells us that the risk of a nuclear catastrophe is greater than ever. But ironically There is little discussion about this possible scenario (hence the title). As if society believed that the risk no longer existed after so many years since the fall of the Berlin Wall, for example.
This book awakens a North Korean attack on the United States. This country will respond on a scale never seen before, but to achieve this we must must pass through Russian airspace. Russia doesn’t understand words, at least not gringa words, and becomes defensive. Preparing his entire arsenal in case something happens.
Three countries (actually just one) are enough As Jacobsen says, the Earth will be transformed into a radiation desert. One person, the leaders of these countries, has the power to push a button and destroy everything. And that also applies to the author one of the scariest things out there today.
Through Interviews with soldiers, gunsmiths, civilians, scientists, builds up the doom and terror of a nuclear encounter. And that’s all Denis Villeneuve has his sights set on making a new film.
