Dune
Beyond fear, destiny awaits.

‘Dune’ is an adaptation of Frank Herbert's science fiction novel of the same name, telling the story of the son of a noble family entrusted with the protection of the most valuable asset and most vital element in the galaxy.

In the far future of humanity, Duke Leto Atreides (Oscar Isaac) accepts the stewardship of the dangerous desert planet Arrakis, also known as Dune. The planet is the only source of the most valuable substance in the universe called "the spice", a drug that extends human life, provides superhuman levels of thinking ability, and gives a faster-than-light travel skill.

Although Leto knows the opportunity is an intricate trap set by his enemies, he takes his concubine Lady Jessica (Rebecca Ferguson), young son and heir Paul (Timothée Chalamet), and most trusted advisers to Arrakis to take control of the spice mining operation full of the dangerous giant sandworms. However, a betrayal leads Paul and Jessica to meet the Fremen instead, natives of Arrakis who live in the deep desert.
