'LOST CITY OF Z' TEASER WITH CHARLIE HUNNAM, ROBERT PATTINSON, TOM HOLLAND! DENIS VILLENEUVE TO DIRECT 'DUNE' AFTER NEW 'BLADE RUNNER'

   NEW 'DUNE' MOVIE TO BE

HELMED BY DENIS VILLENEUVE

I informed you last month that Legendary has bought movie rights on Frank Herbert's sf classic DUNE and now it got Denis Villeneuve for director! He already helmed Arrival sf movie this year and new Blade Runner.

Planned as a movie franchise DUNE is set in the far future with humanity, having spread beyond Earth to countless other worlds, now ruled over by competing feudal families who control access to a drug called Melange. Known popularly as “spice,” the drug gives its users heightened consciousness and an extended lifespan at the cost of crippling addiction and fatal withdrawal. Spice, use of which makes interstellar travel possible, is found only on the desert planet of Arrakis or Dune ruled by the family of Atreides and as such is the most valuable commodity in the galaxy.
