Dune: Part Three - Timothée Chalamet and Zendaya Seen in First Trailer

The trailer features key character moments and war scenes, highlighting the film as the trilogy's epic conclusion with $714 million earned by Part Two, Warner Bros said.

  • On Tuesday, Warner Bros. Discovery released the first trailer for Dune: Part Three, the final installment of the sci-fi trilogy arriving in theaters on December 18, 2026.
  • Set 17 years after Dune: Part Two, the film follows Paul Atreides as Emperor struggling with violent consequences of his rule, while Chani takes up arms against him.
  • The footage reveals Paul Atreides and Chani debating potential baby names—Ghanima, meaning 'spoils of war,' and Leto—while newcomers Jason Momoa, Anya Taylor-Joy, Florence Pugh, and Robert Pattinson join the returning cast.
  • Fans dubbed the December release date 'Dundesday' due to competition with Avengers: Doomsday, while Warner Bros. faces uncertainty ahead of its acquisition by Paramount in a deal worth around $111bn.
  • Actress Zendaya remains 'very grateful' for her role as Chani, admitting the franchise has been a huge part of her life as the 29-year-old reflects on previous entries earning $402m and $714m.
