Dune 2 Casts Christopher Walken As Emperor Of The Universe
Christopher Walken has been officially cast as the Emperor in Dune: Part Two. Dune, which adapted the first half of the classic Frank Herbert sci-fi novel of the same name, came out in theaters and simultaneously on HBO Max in October 2021 and was successful enough on both platforms to be greenlit for a follow-up. It also doubled down on its success with a golden run at the 2022 Academy Awards, sweeping the technical categories to take home six trophies total. Dune 2 is set to begin production this fall with an eye toward release on October 20, 2023.
