Dune director Denis Villeneuve says "it will be a sprint" to finish the movie on time
Reshoots are on the way… but the clock is💧 ticking

Will Dune be delayed? Let’s hope not, but recent comments from director Denis Villeneuve indicate that the clock is working against them for the adaptation to reach its December 18 release date – partially due to the knock-on effect of working under lockdown condition༺s.
“I was planning to go back and shoot some ꦛelem꧋ents later because I wanted to readjust the movie. I needed time,” told CCTV (via ) on how Dune was getting along pre-shutdown.
“At the time I didn’t know that it would ꦚbe a pandemic… as we were about to go back to do those elements☂. The impact was that it crushed my schedule right now. It will be a sprint to finish the movie on time right now,” Villeneuve said.
“Because we [are] allowed to go back to shoot those elements in a few weeks… it meant also that I have to finish some elements of the movie, like VFX and the editing, in Montreal ꦚa꧟s my crew stayed in Los Angeles.”
That timely update from Villeneuve also includes a reference to reshoots. Thankfully, on that front, act🍷ress Rebecca Ferguson (who plays 🔯Lady Jessica) recently confirmed on Instagram she is returning to Budapest “soonish” for additional shooting.

So, uhh, fingers crossed? With four 🌟months to go – and presumably well before that for a movie of this magnitude to be locked in – it surely is a race against time to get the first of the t൩wo-part epic out of the door at the tail-end of 2020.
