The latest adaptation from director Denis Villeneuve will be available to stream on Oct. 22.
Dune is based on the novel by Frank Herbert and was first adapted for the big screen in 1984 by director David Lynch. The new adaptation of the sci-fi film has been made by 53-year-old French-Canadian writer and director Denis Villeneuve. He's been obsessed with Lynch's version since he was a teen. "I remember being mesmerized at the beginning of it. Lynch is a master," said Villeneuve according to CNET, "by far one of the best filmmakers over the past 50 years. It's not about comparing or competition. It's just about that book that was beside my bed since 40 years, and the ideas that I love about the book were not on screen yet, so that's why I came back to it."
Sci-fi fans can check out Villeneuve's movie in theaters and streaming platforms on Oct. 22. As for the cast, let's have a look at the actors from the 1984 film with the ones in 2021's version. Do note, Sting played Feyd-Rautha in Dune (1984), but his character of Feyd-Rautha will not appear in the upcoming adaptation.
