Dune: Part Two Receiving Extended IMAX Run

Dune: Part Two is sticking around IMAX theaters, with Warner Bros. Discovery announcing that the film will see an extended run in various forms of IMAX.

Beginning April 19, 2024, Dune: Part Two will see an extended run in both standard IMAX and 70mm IMAX formats across the country. The announcement comes as the Denis Villeneuve-directed sequel continues to earn at the box office, climbing to just over $660 million worldwide.

The move also comes just a week after it was reported that development on a third film, Dune: Messiah, had begun. So far, reactions to Dune: Part Two have been stellar, with legendary director Steven Spielberg recently calling it one of the best sci-fi films he’s ever seen.

Who’s in Dune: Part Two?

Dune: Part Two is once again directed by Denis Villeneuve from a screenplay he co-wrote with Jon Spaihts. Stars Timothée Chalamet and Zendaya return for the film, as do Rebecca Ferguson, Stellan Skarsgård, Dave Bautista, Javier Bardem, Josh Brolin, and Stephen McKinley Henderson.

Joining them are franchise newcomers Christopher Walken as Emperor Shaddam IV, Florence Pugh as Princess Irulan, Austin Butler as Feyd-Rautha, Léa Seydoux as Lady Margot, and Souheila Yacoub as Shishakli.

“This follow-up film will explore the mythic journey of Paul Atreides as he unites with Chani and the Fremen while on a warpath of revenge against the conspirators who destroyed his family,” reads the synopsis. “Facing a choice between the love of his life and the fate of the known universe, he endeavors to prevent a terrible future only he can foresee.”
