So....Dune 2020. Cool?

I learned today for the first time that a remake of the awesome book (and decidedly less awesome early 80s movie) Dune is being made, and is currently in post-production with a release date of December 18, 2020.

The cast includes many I don't know, but the ones I do know seem excellent for their roles. It's damn near a Marvel reunion...

Jason Mamoa as Duncan Idaho (the swordmaster of House Atreides)

Josh Brolin as Gurney Halleck (weaponsmaster of House Atreides, played memorably (and surprisingly) by Patrick Stewart in the original movie

Stellan Skarsgard as Baron Harkonnen

Dave Bautista (better known as Drax the Destroyer) as "Beast" Rabban, the nephew of Harkonnen


The most critical guy -- the one playing Paul is unknown to me. https://www.imdb.com/name/nm3154303/?ref_=ttfc_fc_cl_t3

This film is also only going to cover the first half of the book, which is good. It's really not possible to cover the whole thing in one 2 or 3 hour movie.

Anyway -- I love the book and a really good film would be great. What say you about all this news? Or am I just the last to known (as would be typical, to be honest!)

YAYYYYY!!!! If I remember correctly my only gripe with the first one was that I had to wait so long for the next one.

This looks amazing.



funny in the comments someone wrote "Gary Oldman cast as the sand worm, that dude is so versatile fr"

Questions: how do animals as massive as sand worms survive on such a barren planet? I'm assuming they filter nutrients from the sand as they travel?

Wtf was that on the ceiling when Leto poisoned the room. Was that the Baron? If so, uhhhhh, what the ****?
It's been a thousand years since I've read the first couple books, but iirc, sand worms actually are 'sand plankton' feeders. The idea is that the deserts of Dune are similar in many ways biologically to oceans, and so have 'plankton' just like water-based seas.

They don't eat the sandtrout. The sandtrout become the worms.

And also how Leto II becomes a dickless half worm hybrid who lives for 3k years and argues philosophy with nerds until he loses his cool and tail whips Duncan v317 against the wall to explode into a thousand pieces.

Sand trout. Forgot about those things. Yeah, they don't eat those. Wasn't Leto covered in those things at one point? Like a second skin or something?
