Pictures<\/p>\n<p>As excitement builds for \u201cDune: Part Three,\u201d Warner Bros. Pictures has announced that the first two films are set to return to IMAX cinemas.<\/p>\n<p>In a post on the film\u2019s official social media accounts, it is indicated that both \u201cDune\u201d and \u201cDune: Part Two\u201d will return on IMAX screens for a one-week-only stint starting on Friday, November 13th.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, attendees will get to \u201cwitness an exclusive sneak peek of Dune: Part Three\u201d.  Tickets for the re-release go on sale Friday.<\/p>\n<p>This is especially good news for the original 2021 film, whose release was impacted by the latter stages of the COVID pandemic and Warner\u2019s HBO Max day-and-date release strategy, meaning quite a few people still haven\u2019t really had a chance to see it on the big screen, let alone IMAX.<\/p>\n<p>Directed by Denis Villeneuve, \u201cDune\u201d follows Paul Atreides (Timothee Chalamet) and his family as they become caught in a struggle over the desert planet Arrakis and its valuable spice. The sequel follows Paul\u2019s growing role among the Fremen and his pursuit of revenge.<\/p>\n<p>The upcoming third film, adapting the second book \u201cDune Messiah,\u201d is being pegged as the last of the trilogy and looks at the cost of Paul\u2019s rise to power.  As the trailer yesterday revealed, Villeneuve is taking liberties with the source material \u2013 seemingly going beyond the scope of the original work and incorporating some elements of \u201cChildren of Dune\u201d into the narrative.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDune: Part Three\u201d is scheduled to arrive in cinemas on December 18th.<\/p>\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">For one week only, Dune and Dune: Part Two return to IMAX.
