I'm about 65% through the book and I can't imagine a novel more perfectly suited to Villeneuve's style of understated suspense that blows into epic shit before simmering down into an understated flow again

it's VERY similar in atmosphere and pace to both his and the original blade runner

Stellan Skarsgård to Play Villain in Legendary's 'Dune'
https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/amp/h ... ssion=true
Skarsgård will play one of the villains of the piece, Baron Harkonnen, whose family previously ruled Arrakis and has a long hatred of the Atreides family, plotting with the galactic emperor to destroy it. He is also the uncle to the brutish character to be played by Bautista.

I'm not sure anyone could equal Orson Welles for the role, but this'll have to do.

oh my fucking god yes! He's going to crush it

castings are flooding in, good good

@Vader182: I thought Blade Runner and 2049 both had a quite slow-burn narrative to them, Dune feels more closer to an exhilarating piece than slow-burn to me. Maybe more so at the start of the book. I hope you're going to delve into the sequels, too. They're fantastic.

I wonder who Denis is going with for his composer. I still can't believe Jóhann Jóhannsson is gone.

After last year I'd take Lorne Balfe or Justin Hurwitz.
