When will Dune Part II be Released?

It is likely to be released in cinemas on 20th October 2023. Well, there is a sad news for those who love watching their favorite movie sitting on the couch of their bedroom and hate watching movies in cinemas. The film will stream online only after 45 days of exclusivity window in the US for theaters.

The first part was made available to stream in the US on HBO Max on the same day as its theatrical release.

What could be the Expected Plot for Dune Part II?

Dune Part I ended on a high note and created a lot of room for Part II. Part I ended with Paul officially joining the Fremen. Paul and his mother, Lady Jessica, travel with Fremen to their home city. While their travel, Paul figures out one Fremen member riding a sandworm. It might be Chalamet riding a sandworm, and the story will begin from here in Part II.

Fans could expect Paul’s rising to power among Fremen and turn into rebellion against Emperor Shaddam IV. Additionally, new entries will include Princess Irulan, the Emperor’s eldest teen daughter, and Paul’s wife. Part I left the biggest twist, including Laddy Jessica and late Duke Leto’s daughter Alia Atreides. There are many spoilers and shocks hidden for Dune fans in Part II.

Don’t you freak! We will keep posting the latest buzz about the movie.
