I was very moved by it.” “It’s a movie that is full, and you can feel the weight of it, and at the same time [you can enjoy] the spectacularity of it,” he added. “[I can’t wait] to go back to the desert with those people, and I’m so happy to go back with Denis, who is one of the greatest directors ever.

He’s a lovely man.” Wondering which stars will be returning for the sequel? And which ones aren’t coming back? Click through the slideshow to see who is and who isn’t returning for Dune: Part Two…
