Rebecca Ferguson Confirms Dune 3 Return

by

I’m so excited to hear that Rebecca Ferguson is returning for the third *Dune* movie! It’s fantastic news to know another key player from Denis Villeneuve’s incredible films will be back. She’s been such a vital part of the story so far, and I can’t wait to see what she brings to the next installment.

While promoting her new film, *A House of Dynamite*, Rebecca Ferguson shared that she’s already completed filming her scenes for *Dune: Part Three*. She noted that her role is small, as the character isn’t a major presence in the source material. According to Ferguson, director Denis Villeneuve ‘had a little idea’ to include her. She praised the script as ‘phenomenal,’ acknowledging the difficulty of adapting such a complex book into a film. She highlighted Villeneuve’s dedication to staying true to the novel while also making creative choices, stating that everything he touches is exceptional.

Rebecca Ferguson is joining the cast of *Dune: Part Three*, making her the sixth returning actor from previous films. Her return was announced six months after Timothée Chalamet, Zendaya, Florence Pugh, and Jason Momoa were confirmed to reprise their roles, and two months after Josh Brolin announced he’d be back as Gurney Halleck. Joining the cast as the children of Paul and Chani are Jason Momoa’s son, Nakoa-Wolf Momoa, and Ida Brooke, who will play Leto II Atreides and Ghanima Atreides respectively. Another actor has also been cast for the third film, but their role hasn’t been revealed yet.

Is Dune: Part Three Adapting Frank Herbert’s Messiah?

The next *Dune* movie, currently titled *Dune: Part Three*, will likely be based on Frank Herbert’s *Dune Messiah*, the second book in the series. However, the actors chosen suggest director Denis Villeneuve is planning significant changes to the story. Specifically, characters Leto II and Ghanima are cast with teenage actors, even though they aren’t born until the end of *Dune Messiah*. This has led fans to believe the film might also incorporate elements from Herbert’s third novel, *Children of Dune*, which features older versions of these characters.

Before the release of *Dune: Part Three*, actor Rebecca Ferguson appears in the thriller *A House of Dynamite*. The film will be shown in select U.S. cinemas this weekend, followed by a release on Netflix worldwide on October 24th. *A House of Dynamite* centers on the U.S. government’s reaction to a single nuclear missile attack from an unknown source, and also stars Gabriel Basso, Jared Harris, Tracy Letts, Anthony Ramos, Moses Ingram, Jonah Hauer-King, Greta Lee, and Jason Clarke.
