Director Denis Villeneuve‘s first movie after Dune: Part Two has been announced, and will be another production alongside him and Legendary Entertainment. The sci-fi director’s latest theatrical hit has garnered $630.1 million at the box office as of writing, making it likely he’ll be able to craft another installment in the future. His next planned installment is an adaptation of Dune Messiah, the sequel novel to Herbert’s original 1965 sci-fi book.
However, Deadline reports that Villeneuve’s next movie following Dune: Part Two‘s release will be a film based on Annie Jacobsen’s nonfiction novel Nuclear War: A Scenario. Teaming up with Legendary once more to make the movie, the director is expected to make the film after Dune Messiah is finished. This means it could be quite some time until the director’s new project about nuclear warfare is cemented.
