#FIRSTLOOK: DENIS VILLENEUVE AND TIMOTHÉE CHALAMET AT “DUNE: PART THREE” GLOBAL FAN EVENT

Ten cities around the globe got to partake in a special DUNE: PART THREE Global Fan Event today, including Toronto where the livestream took place at Scotiabank Theatre Toronto. Moderated by Podcaster Brittany Broski, Canadian Writer/Director Denis Villeneuve and star Timothée Chalamet fielded questions from fans around the world.

Villeneuve reveals his process how he was far ahead of schedule making this third film, adapted from Frank Herbert‘s DUNE MESSIAH.

Villeneuve: “I went back home and two things happened. I kept waking up at night with these images that would get stronger and stronger. Also something important I have to say is that when we were filming Part Two, I felt an appetite, a desire to finish that story and I was planning to film Part Three a few years from now. But I asked, would it be a better idea instead of going there by necessity, go by the images that are coming to my mind right now? I wrote the Movie right away and here we are, DUNE: PART THREE is based on the second book DUNE MESSIAH. It was my favourite and it was an honour for me to bring it to the screen.”.

On what to expect, he says “It is a Dune movie but it is very different. Written in a more intense way.”.

Chalamet professes his respect and admiration for Villeneuve and his Co-stars.

Chalamet: “I’m a huge fan of The Lord of the Rings trilogy and that was the last time someone knocked-out three things so consecutively. In Denis we trust.”.

He adds, “Zendaya as you guys see in that Trailer, such a fantastic performance in this as usual. Anya (Taylor-Joy) is actually terrifying and amazing. Rob (Pattinson), I knew how good he was.”.

Sony Pictures Canada x Mr. Will are thrilled to give Readers a chance to win Cineplex run-of-engagement passes to see SPIDER-MAN: BRAND NEW DAY!

Synopsis: After the record-breaking global success of Spider-Man: No Way Home, Spider-Man: Brand New Day marks an entirely new chapter for Peter Parker and Spider-Man. Four years have passed since the events of No Way Home, and Peter is now an adult living entirely alone, having voluntarily erased himself from the lives and memories of those he loves. Crime-fighting in a New York that no longer knows his name, he’s devoted himself entirely to protecting his city — a full-time Spider-Man — but as the demands on him intensify, the pressure sparks a surprising physical evolution that threatens his existence, even as a strange new pattern of crimes gives rise to one of the most powerful threats he has ever faced.
