View Professional Development Timothée Chalamet missed out the Best Actor Oscar this week in his role as the hero of Dune 2. Could he have a chance in 2027 with a more villainous performance? No, I'm not referring to his baiting of artists in the opera and ballet worlds, but to his upcoming return as a much transformed Paul Atreides. Warner Bros just dropped the first Dune 3 trailer and a series of character posters, and they reveal a darker, more morally complex character wrestling with the responsibility of messianic power. The first Dune 3 trailer is a suitably epic tease for the final movie in Denis Villeneuve’s trilogy (the director has confirmed he's leaving the saga here, but that the door will be open for someone else to try to tackle the later books in Frank Herbert's series should they dare). Set 17 years after Dune 2, the movie is shot for IMAX and promises even greater operatic scale and ambition, setting expectations high.
