Dune movie release gets pushed to late October 2021
A Warner Bros. date shuffle resulted in the most recenꦰt Dune delay

The Dune wait grows💯 longer, as the sci-fi epic has been delayed a few more weeks, reports .
Dune will now be released on October 22 instead of October 1. As far as delays go, this one's pretty small (just three weeks), but Dune has been moved around quite a few times due to COVID-19. Denis Villeneuve's Dune was initially meant to release on December 18, 2020, but was delayed due to the ongoing pandem♉ic. Now, Warner Bros. has shuffled around some of its upcoming release dates, resulting in the additional delay.
The Warner Bros. reshuffling has resulted in The Many Saints of Newark – the Sopranos prequel – getting pushed one week, into Dune's original spot. Cry Macho, an upcoming Clint Eastwood film (yes, it's call༒ed that) has been moved up to September 17, as Dune replaced its Oc💯tober 22 spot.
Dune stars Timothée Chalamet, Oscar Isaac, Zendaya, Rebecca Ferguson, Josh Brolin, Javier Bardem, Dave Bautista, and Stellan Skarsgård. Chalamet will play Paul Atreides, the son of a Duke (Oscar Isaac) in a world set far, far into our future. The Atreides family is relocated from their lush, green home planet to the harsh desert planet A💯rrakis, where they're forced to adjust in more ways than one. Dune is famously dense, featuring some pretty in-depth philosoꦰphical arguments, religious commentary, and a slew of difficult-to-pronounce names (like Kwisatz Haderach, good luck with that).
The film is based on the book by Frank Herbert, which spawned a lengthy series and several spinoffs, and more than one film (including one by David Lynch, which is absolutely what you'd expect).

The director has made visually impressive films like Blade Runner 2042 and Arrival, so🦩 it certainly seems like Herbert's sacred sci-fi text is in good hands.
