New Dune: Part Two Trailer, Poster, and First Look Photos Just Dropped
Warner Bros. just released the first poster, stills, and trailer for Dune: Part Two featuring Timothée Chalamet and Zendaya reprising their roles in the film’s highly anticipated sequel.
The poster takes fans back to Arrakis, as Paul Atreides (Timothée Chalamet) and Chani (Zendaya) stand in front of a fiery sunset. As Atreides’ clothing billows in the dusty wind, Chani stands by his side, both characters appear poised and ready to fight.
In addition to the poster release, photos of Austin Butler and Florence Pugh debuted as well. The images reveal the actors in their new characters. Butler sports a fully shaven head and eyebrows as he stares eerily into the camera.
Pugh dawns an intricately beaded headdress with a fierce look in her eyes. Since the addition of the two prominent actors was announced, fans have been anxiously awaiting to see their characters in action, and this first look did not disappoint.
