Future title

Currently, we don't know whether the third film (which hasn't even been officially confirmed yet) will be titled Dune Messiah, Dune: Part Three, or something else. If it is the former, we should pay close attention to whether the official title includes a colon; if there is, we can simply move this to Dune: Messiah — without additional parenthetical disambiguation — per WP:SMALLDETAILS, and then add a hatnote to the novel's article. (Though I anticipate it will likely be sent to RM eventually.) InfiniteNexus (talk) 19:20, 5 March 2024 (UTC)Reply

Release date

The Digital Spy article says that the film would be released on December 18, 2026.^[1] The Media Expert (talk) 19:35, 24 April 2025 (UTC)Reply

While Warner Bros. has scheduled a film from Villeneuve on that date, it has not been officially confirmed to be for this film, and that article is referring to an IMAX presentation from last year that later had the information removed, so it is not enough to go off of as definitively confirmed. While it is very likely this film will be released on that date, best to wait for a more formal confirmation. Trailblazer101 (talk) 19:39, 24 April 2025 (UTC)Reply

Proposal: Change the name to Untitled Dune film and change the release date

Pretty much that, the offical account of the Dune franchise refer to it as the third film in the Dune franchise, there's a good chance the film doesn't have a title yet. Nils2088 (talk) 00:34, 9 July 2025 (UTC)Reply

It doesn't matter what the official social media accounts say when we have a reliable source in Variety confirming the title and TheWrap confirming the release date. Wikipedia goes by verifiability first and foremost, not by just what the companies want us to call something. — Trailblazer¹⁰¹🔥 ^{(discuss · contribs)} 00:36, 9 July 2025 (UTC)Reply

Anya Taylor-Joy isn't listed, is there no news, since the preceding film had her cast -- 65.93.183.181 (talk) 20:01, 10 July 2025 (UTC)Reply

There are no sources presently confirming her involvement in this film. — Trailblazer¹⁰¹🔥 ^{(discuss · contribs)} 21:10, 10 July 2025 (UTC)Reply

Duncan Idaho or Hayt?

Should Jason Mamoa not be listed as Hayt instead? 49.195.41.80 (talk) 00:49, 16 July 2025 (UTC)Reply

Sources have been calling the character Duncan, which may not be correct but no press or studio announcements for the film have specified if this element matches the book (Hayt) or not.— TAnthony^Talk 01:27, 16 July 2025 (UTC)Reply
