When folks go to theaters or HBO Max to watch “Dune” next month, they’re only watching half of a story. Though the film is simply titled “Dune” in all the marketing materials, Denis Villeneuve is not hiding the fact that the film is really “Dune: Part One,” including that title in the actual film itself.

“A great man doesn’t seek to lead; he is called to it,” Duke Leto Atreides (Oscar Isaac) says somberly to his son Paul Atreides (Timothée Chalamet), in Denis Villeneuve’s dynastic epic space odyssey “Dune.” The Duke speaks to duty, purpose, and destiny, but the words are laced with burden and uncertainty for Paul, seemingly undecided about his future. When Villeneuve (“Sicario,” “Prisoners”) once spoke about making “Dune” as a “’Star Wars’ for adults,” he wasn’t kidding.

VENICE, Italy -- Denis Villeneuve’s adaption of Frank Herbert’s “Dune” was always envisioned as two films. But even if the sequel is anything but a certainty, it’s already been a “dream” for the Canadian director and his star Timothée Chalamet.“Simply put, this was the honor of a lifetime for me,” Chalamet said Friday at the Venice Film Festival.
