thing just got spicy for Dave Bautista . He ’s reteaming with his Blade Runner 2049director Denis Villeneuvefor the approaching remake of Dune .
Varietyreports that the former WWE grappler turned Guardians of the Galaxy megastar will joinTimothée Chalametand Rebecca Ferguson in the approaching flick . It ’s base on the classic 1965 Frank Herbert novel that was splendidly twist into a 1984 film by David Lynch . Eric Rothwrote the script .
Chalamet is playing the film ’s steer , Paul Atreides , who attempt to lead a gyration to regain ascendence of the planet Arrakis as well as the valuable spice barter take from his crime syndicate . Ferguson is his mother , Lady Jessica , and Bautista will play “ Beast ” Rabban , the “ the sadistic nephew of a baron who oversees Arrakis , ” according tothe Hollywood Reporter .
While Bautista is an excellent summation to basically any cast , the better news here is the idea that more cast means Villeneuve ’s film is mystify closer to production , which intend closer to release too . Maybe we ’ll see Dune in the summer or evenfall of 2020 ?
When we do , though , that probably wo n’t be the last of it . agree to Herbert ’s son Brian , the filmwill only cover the first halfof the Quran — so Legendary , which is producing , apparently sees this as the start of a franchise . That ’s good news for Bautista , whomay be on his way out of another braggart franchise .
Dune does not yet have a vent particular date but Bautista will next be visit ( by his own admittance , so it ’s not a pamperer ) in Avengers : Endgame .
