May 15, 2020

Warner Bros. Pictures has debuted a new photo from the highly-anticipated remake of the sci-fi epic Dune that features Timothée Chalamet’s Paul Atreides in training for the treacherous journey that lies ahead for him. The photo, along with other exciting sneak peeks at Denis Villeneuve’s adaptation of Frank Herbert’s novel, can be viewed in the gallery below! (Via VitalThrills)

The star-studded cast includes Timothée Chalamet (Call Me By Your Name), Rebecca Ferguson (Mission: Impossible — Fallout) and Oscar Isaac (Star Wars: The Last Jedi) in leading roles. The film will also feature Zendaya (Spider-Man: Far From Home) Jason Momoa (Aquaman), Dave Bautista (Guardians of the Galaxy), Javier Bardem (No Country For Old Men), Stellan Skarsgard (Thor: The Dark World), Charlotte Rampling (The Night Porter) and Josh Brolin (Avengers: Endgame).

Villeneuve is best known for directing Blade Runner 2049 as well as Sicario. Though Dune will likely resemble the former film more than the latter, both display the sort of experience directing arid, desolate locales that a fan would want in their Dune director, considering a sizable chunk of the story takes place on a desert planet.

Dune is currently set to be released in theaters on December 18, 2020.
