Dune: Part Three is dated 18 December 2026

The cast as listed: Timothée Chalamet, Zendaya, Florence Pugh, Rebecca Ferguson, Austin Butler, Javier Bardem, with Robert Pattinson and Anya Taylor-Joy among the new names. Nakoa-Wolf Momoa and Ida Brooke are listed as Leto II and Ghanima. Jason Momoa’s line continues in the child. Villeneuve has called it the last Dune he will make. Last is his word. This newspaper reprints last. It does not attach a sequel rumour past last.

Principal photography ran July to November 2025 in Budapest and Abu Dhabi. Five months. Two places. Linus Sandgren is the cinematographer. Hans Zimmer returns. Those are the shop facts. IMAX 70 mm tickets for 19 locations went on sale 6 April 2026 and sold out in minutes. Insider screenings: 14 December in IMAX 70 mm, 15 December digital IMAX. General North America 18 December. International from 16 December. The window is dated in four places, and all four belong on the calendar: 6 April for the 70 mm sale that vanished in minutes, 14 and 15 December for the insiders, 16 December abroad, 18 December in North America.

The film is set nearly two decades after Paul seized the Imperium. Official synopsis: a ruthless emperor, old allies, a conspiracy with Chani at the centre. That is the studio’s synopsis, not a review. Chani is Zendaya. Paul is Chalamet. A ruthless emperor is the Messiah job. Herbert’s book is not recapped here. What is on the record is that the official synopsis names Chani at the centre of a conspiracy, that Leto II and Ghanima are listed on Nakoa-Wolf Momoa and Ida Brooke, and that Villeneuve says this is his last Dune.

6 April 2026, sold out in minutes, 19 locations, IMAX 70 mm: that sale is the market’s first answer. 14 and 15 December are the insider days. 16 December is abroad. 18 December is North America. July to November 2025 is when they shot. Budapest and Abu Dhabi are where. Sandgren on camera. Zimmer on score. Vaughan on the script with Villeneuve. Herbert on the book. Legendary and Warner Bros. on the money. Last Dune, per the director. The window, the shop, and the word last are the story four months out.

A runtime and a rating have not been published in the material this page is working from, so they do not appear here. Messiah is not enlarged into a civilisation speech. What can be printed is the dated window. Part Three is dated 18 December 2026 in North America and from 16 December internationally. Photography wrapped November 2025. 6 April 70 mm tickets for 19 rooms sold out in minutes. Insiders are 14 and 15 December. The book is Dune Messiah. Villeneuve calls it his last. The new names include Pattinson and Taylor-Joy. Leto II and Ghanima are listed. 30 August is this print date. Four months out. The window is the story.

The date with the book attached is the beat. Messiah. 18 December. IMAX 70 mm already sold a 19-room pass in April. Sandgren. Zimmer. Vaughan. Two cities in 2025. Last, says Villeneuve. Chani at the centre, says the synopsis. Nearly two decades after the Imperium, says the setting. That is enough scale for a newspaper. The rest is a Friday in December. Circle it. 18 December 2026.

The inventory of the window, written as a calendar rather than a list to be chanted, is this. North America 18 December 2026. International from 16 December. Warner Bros. Pictures and Legendary.

A window is a list of days, and the days are the news. 16 December international. 18 December North America, 2026. Warner Bros. Pictures, Legendary, Villeneuve, Vaughan, Herbert’s Dune Messiah. Chalamet, Zendaya, Pugh, Ferguson, Butler, Bardem, Pattinson, Taylor-Joy. Nakoa-Wolf Momoa and Ida Brooke as Leto II and Ghanima. Last Dune Villeneuve will make, he has said.

Synopsis: ruthless emperor, old allies, conspiracy with Chani at the centre. Nearly two decades after the Imperium. The sermon can wait. The Friday cannot. 18 December 2026 is the date a family can circle. Messiah is the book attached to it. Last is the director’s word attached to both. The 19 rooms that vanished in April are the market’s first answer, already given, already gone.
