Rebecca Rubin Film and Media ReporterThere’s been something notable about ticket sales for “Dune,” and not only because the sci-fi adaptation of Frank Herbert’s landmark novel has managed to draw crowds in theaters despite playing simultaneously on HBO Max.In its first weekend of release, half of domestic box office revenues for the Warner Bros. film came from Imax, Dolby and other high-end screens, known in the film business by the unwieldy moniker of premium large formats (PLF).

Naman Ramachandran James Bond film “No Time to Die” and epic Frank Herbert adaptation “Dune” slugged it out at the top of the U.K. and Ireland box office with the iconic spy edging out the desert warriors.

Warner Bros/Legendary’s sci-fi epic Dune is crossing the $300M mark globally today, with North America totaling $71M through Monday and including $228.3M at the international box office.

Rebecca Rubin Film and Media ReporterThe domestic box office was lighter on the treats and heavier on the tricks during Halloween weekend, capping an otherwise busy October at the movies on a muted note.Horror movies “Antlers” and “Last Night in Soho” opened nationwide and struggled to scare up strong ticket sales, leaving last weekend’s champion “Dune” to rule over box office charts again.

Saturday AM Update: The first Halloween in two years during the pandemic is taking its toll on the domestic box office, a grey cloud which many saw coming, with many trick-or-treating or heading to parties tonight.

Dune” is repeating its top performance at the domestic box office this weekend.Both Edgar Wright’s “Last Night in Soho” and Scott Cooper’s “Antlers” were expected to bring in around $5 million in their opening weekends, leaving the No. 1 spot open for Denis Villeneuve’s adaptation of Frank Herbert’s fabled sci-fi novel.“Dune” added another $5 million to its domestic haul on Friday, heading towards a sophomore weekend total of $15.5 million. The film, which stars Timothée Chalamet, Rebecca Ferguson, Oscar Isaac and Zendaya, also opened simultaneously on HBO Max.

Sicario , Arrival , Blade Runner 2049 - it’s fair to say Denis Villeneuve has been on a bit of a roll behind the camera.

It seems the dreaded 'impostor syndrome' can even set in for big stars like Jason Momoa, who opened up about one particular scene he filmed in Dune.The actor plays Duncan Idaho in the Warner Bros. adaptation of Frank Herbert's novel, and he spoke about a scene he filmed with Javier Bardem as Stiglar and Josh Brolin as Gurney Halleck.The 42-year-old actor admitted it was his favorite day on the set, where Stiglar is introduced, though he was afraid everyone would 'find out' about his self-perceived lack of talent.

Dune: Part Two is officially on the way, with Timothée Chalamet and Denis Villeneuve set to return for the sequel.The original film is currently enjoying huge success at the box office, and so it will come as a surprise to no one that another chapter has already been given the green light.Legendary and Warner Brothers confirmed on Tuesday that the second in the Dune series will be hitting theatres in October 2023.According to Deadline, Canadian filmmaker and Dune director Villeneuve said he ‘just received news from Legendary that we are officially moving forward with Dune: Part Two’.He continued: ‘It was a dream of mine to adapt Frank Herbert’s Dune, and I have the fans, the cast, and crew, Legendary and Warner Bros.

Warner Bros. has confirmed that Dune 2 is officially moving forward!

Warner Bros. released its long-awaited Dune in both theaters and on HBO Max over the weekend, though some fans were rather disappointed at a serious lack of actress Zendaya.The 25-year-old actress plays Chani in the adaptation of Frank Herbert's novel, with many fans assuming it was one of the bigger roles in the movie.However, after Vulturereported over the weekend that Zendaya is only in seven minutes of the two-hour-35-minute film, many took to Twitter to lash out.

Rebecca Rubin Film and Media ReporterYears ago, filmmaker Denis Villeneuve had agreed to adapt “Dune,” Frank Herbert’s seminal sci-fi novel, under one condition: the sweeping saga about warring political dynasties that clash over access to a vital planet could not be confined to only one movie.“The story is so rich and complex that, in order to be faithful to the book, we’ll need to make at least two movies,” Villeneuve explained in 2020. “That was a deal right at the start.”Days before the first installment — starring Timothee Chalamet, Oscar Isaac, Zendaya, Rebecca Ferguson, Josh Brolin and Jason Momoa — premiered in theaters and on HBO Max, WarnerMedia executive Ann Sarnoff strongly suggested a follow-up would be imminent.

With millions of people being exposed to the beauty and majesty of Frank Herbert’s sci-fi novel, “Dune,” thanks to the new film adaptation from director Denis Villeneuve, folks are learning about the characters that populate the world of Arrakis, including Duncan Idaho (and yes, people have thoughts about that name). And in the film, Idaho is brought to life courtesy of Jason Momoa, an actor that is just as surprised as many viewers to find out that he was hand-selected to be part of the sci-fi epic.

Angelique Jackson In “Dune,” Timothée Chalamet’s Paul Atreides is heard opining, “I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer.”The line of dialogue is one of the most famous quotes from Frank Herbert’s classic novel and, now, one of the major themes of Oscar-nominated filmmaker Denis Villeneuve’s big-screen adaptation.But when it comes to translating a 700-page sci-fi epic into a blockbuster movie – especially when previous attempts to successfully translate the dense material for the screen have been shaky at best — there was a healthy amount of fear from everyone involved.Villeneuve had been dreaming of bringing Herbert’s book to life since he first read it as a teenager.

Rebecca Rubin Film and Media ReporterDirector Denis Villeneuve’s “Dune” led the international box office, generating $47.4 million from 75 overseas territories over the weekend.The sci-fi epic, based on Frank Herbert’s seminal novel, had the biggest turnout in China, where the film opened to $22 million, a muted result in the world’s largest movie market. “Dune” also opened in this weekend in the United Kingdom ($7.5 million), Korea ($3.4 million), Mexico ($2 million) and Poland ($1.3 million).

Dune is already starting strong!
