Dune: Part Three wraps filming in Budapest and Abu Dhabi, set for December 18, 2026 release

Dune: Part Three is the final film in Denis Villeneuve's Dune trilogy and the sequel to Dune: Part Two (2024), scheduled for a US theatrical release on December 18, 2026.
Villeneuve directed and co-wrote the screenplay with Brian K. Vaughan; Hans Zimmer returns to compose the score, with Linus Sandgren on cinematography and Joe Walker editing.
The cast includes Timothée Chalamet, Zendaya, Jason Momoa, Florence Pugh, Rebecca Ferguson, Isaach de Bankolé, Charlotte Rampling, Anya Taylor-Joy, Robert Pattinson, Javier Bardem, and Josh Brolin.
Principal photography ran from July 2025 to November 2025 in Budapest and Abu Dhabi, after Warner Bros. Pictures dated the film following the success of Part Two.
The premise is set nearly two decades after Paul Atreides seized control of the Imperium, with Paul facing a conspiracy and betrayal as Chani sits at the center of it.
