I absolutely adore how this visual progression throughout the film so brilliantly communicates how she falls further and further into being nothing but a political pawn for several groups & individuals; a steady decline from where she started that she can do NOTHING against.
Underrated as a gag that every time we see her she has a larger and more violence-oriented hat

My interview timing had ended yet Denis Villeneuve was awesome enough to let me sneak in one more quick question.
I was blown away by the infrared lenses Greig Fraser used to create that brutal black & white look of Giedi Prime.

When I first read Dune before the movie, I was pretty disappointed by Chani.
I knew Zendaya had been cast and went into the novels with high expectations for her character. What I got was a one dimensional love interest, a plot device with little agency, a character that seemed

The best thing he could have said about the film. He is right: Messiah IS different.
It's a different sci-fi sub-genre. A complete shift from the adventurous tone to something bleak, sad and larger than life. A 1000 times bigger in scale and frighteningly dehumanising. A drama
Denis Villeneuve on ‘DUNE: MESSIAH’:
“If I do a third one, which is in the writing process, it's not like a trilogy. It's strange to say that, but if I go back there, it’s to do something that feels different and has its own identity.”
