Dune 3: Potential Script
Villeneuve did not give away much on the film’s script, but as per reports, the threequel will be based on the book Dune: Messiah, hence the supposed title. It is the second book in the Dune series, with six novels in total.
Speaking to the South Korean press, Dune-maker Denis Villeneuve revealed that Dune: Messiah is being written, and the screenplay is almost finished. He added that it will take some time.
Dune 3: Return of a potential character
Meanwhile, Timothee Chalamet gave away a major spoiler in his interview with Josh Horowitz. Timothee revealed that Jason Momoa’s character, Duncan Idaho, will be back in Dune Messiah. For the unversed, Jason’s character died in the first film. In the Dune universe, it will not be impossible as an artificial copy of a dead person can be created by a genetically altered race, Bene Theilax. This synthetic copy is known as a Ghola. In the book, Timothee’s character Paul was gifted with a Ghola of an old friend.
Jason Momoa fans might be delighted about this possible spoiler, but any official confirmation has yet to come.
Dune 3: Insider Claim
The insider claimed, “I’m already hearing rumblings that WB is so bullish on Villeneuve’s vision for Dune that ‘Part Three’ has already been greenlit with a 2027 release date in mind. WB sees Part Two as a home run, and internally, I’m hearing the studio is already projecting an opening north of $100 million. That may be optimistic, but given the trailer above, it is hardly out of the question.”

As per the report, the film will allegedly be released in 2027.
