Denis Villeneuve's upcoming big-budget DUNE adaptation is one of the most highly anticipated in years, with a trailer coming tomorrow. But to whet our appetites, Warner Bros. is teasing us with that fact with an "announcement trailer…for a trailer". But, hey, at least you get to see some footage (however brief) now rather than later, if you check out the embed at the top of the article!
Here's the official synopsis:
In the far future of humanity, Duke Leto Atreides accepts stewardship of the dangerous desert planet Arrakis, also known as Dune, the only source of the most valuable substance in the universe, "the spice", a drug which extends human life, provides superhuman levels of thought, and makes foldspace travel possible. Though Leto knows the opportunity is an intricate trap set by his enemies, he takes his Bene Gesserit concubine Lady Jessica, young son and heir Paul, and most trusted advisers to Arrakis. Leto takes control of the spice mining operation, which is made perilous by the presence of giant sandworms. A bitter betrayal leads Paul and Jessica to the Fremen, natives of Arrakis who live in the deep desert.
Meanwhile DUNE – starring Rebecca Ferguson, Zendaya, Jason Momoa, Timothée Chalamet, Josh Brolin, and Dave Bautista – is still expected to spice up theaters December 18th!
