Dune: Part Three final trailer shows Chani fighting Paul and apparently joining the conspiracy against him, a break from Dune Messiah
- The final trailer for Dune: Part Three shows Chani (Zendaya) declaring her opposition to Paul, fighting him and seemingly joining the conspiracy against him, rather than staying at his side as she does in Frank Herbert's Dune Messiah.
- In the 1969 novel, set 12 years after Dune, Paul rules as Emperor while the Bene Gesserit, the Spacing Guild and the Tleilaxu plot against him, with Princess Irulan (Florence Pugh) and the shapeshifting face dancer Scytale (Robert Pattinson) at the center of the conspiracy.
- The trailer gives Jason Momoa more screen time as Hayt, the clone of Duncan Idaho the conspirators created to distract Paul and his sister Alia (Anya Taylor-Joy) from their moves.
- Brief shots include Isaach de Bankolé as Farok, a fighter in Paul's Fremen jihad who betrays his emperor, and what may be the first look at Paul and Chani's twin children Leto II and Ghanima.
- Because Scytale is a face dancer who can change form and copy people, the article asks whether the figure fighting Paul is actually Chani or another trick; Dune: Part Three reaches theaters on December 18, 2026.
