Robert Pattinson is in early talks to join ‘Dune 3’, sources say.

    Last time I read about it I was curious who he’d play, I was just listening to Dune before seeing this and finally realized that was the only real role (unless it was a recast one, but that seemed unlikely) that’d be worthwhile for a more well known actor…I guess it could have been the guild navigator, I forgot about him.

    Mean there are a few minor roles that they could expand on but why would they focus on irrelevant items when there’s so much story to cover? Oh…

    I say that as enjoying Dune as a cinematic movie but they really didn’t do the story justice. So much great intrigue story with it barely discussed. I only did watch them once so maybe missed some finer points

      No way they could pack all the intrigue into a movie. As it was they had to rush some explanations, without blatant exposition, still did damned well.

      One example; think on all of Princess Irulan’s writings at the chapter beginnings.
