What To Expect From The Movie Dune 2?

Vladimir Harkonnen from “Dune” believes Paul and Jessica are dead after surviving Leto’s attempt to assassinate him. For his new duke, Duncan gives his life.

Paul and Jessica are successful in their search for the Fremen, and Paul engages in a fight to the death with a character named Jamis, who appeared frequently in Paul’s visions.

Following his success in the fight, both he as well as his mother are accepted into the Fremen society. 

In addition to that, he finally meets Chani, the girl who had visited him in his dreams on multiple occasions.

Paul embraces his new role as Paul Muad’Dib, the Fremen messiah, as the movie comes to a close. In the potential sequel, Paul may take Chani as his lover, and if they have a child together, he may name the child after his deceased father. 

In his quest to retake Arrakis, Paul will come to appreciate the potential value of the Fremen, but he will also be vigilant to the threat their cult poses to the known universe.

He and his mother will eventually meet Gurney again. To ensure the survival of the House Atreides, Paul will probably attempt to ascend to the imperial throne.
