In July last year and April this year, Warner Bros. released an initial batch of opening-weekend IMAX 70mm tickets for Denis Villeneuve’s “Dune: Part Three”.
Now comes a third round, complete with a new trailer, which also indicates that other premium large-format screens (eg., Dolby) and sneak peek fan screenings are now on sale.
Tickets can be found at the film’s official site. More regular screenings will go on pre-sale closer to the film’s debut.
The film will be based on 1969’s “Dune Messiah” novel. The new film begins seventeen years later with Paul Atreides (Timothee Chalamet) ruling as Emperor, married to Princess Irulan (Florence Pugh), while maintaining a relationship with his concubine, Chani (Zendaya).
Forces plot against him, including the Bene Tleilax – an arcane, xenophobic sect of genetic manipulators who traffic in biological products. Villeneuve says the film will tonally lean more into a thriller and also feature more action than the previous two films.
“Dune: Part Three” also stars Rebecca Ferguson as Lady Jessica, Javier Bardem as Stilgar, Anya Taylor-Joy as Alia Atreides, Jason Momoa as a new version of Duncan Idaho, and Robert Pattinson as Scytale.
The project marks Chalamet and Villeneuve’s last foray into this universe. The project, primarily shot on 65mm film stock, also has sequences shot in 15/70mm IMAX film. Scenes in the desert, of which there are plenty, were shot in IMAX Digital.
“Dune: Part Three” is slated to release in cinemas on December 18th.
