What do you get when you mix the best sci-fi movie of 2024 with the best new trailer of 2024? Dune: Part Two‘s marketing team kicking themselves. Danny Boyle’s 28 Years Later sprinted out the gates with its first official trailer. The promo shows off Aaron Taylor-Johnson, Jodie Comer, and Ralph Fiennes in the long-gestating zombie apocalypse. But, the visual spectacle was overshadowed by the incredibly tense score — an eerie rendition of the Rudyard Kipling poem “Boots.” Now, editors online are re-snipping their favorite movies to fit the 28 Years Later trailer, and Dune: Part Two‘s re-edit might be the best one.
Twitter user @kocasoda shared their version of Dune: Part Two, which was edited to match the 28 Years Later, and it is phenomenal. The fan-made trailer uses clips from Denis Villeneuve’s seminal Dune: Part Two while keeping Rudyard Kipling’s poem instead of Hans Zimmer’s score. The trailer transforms Dune: Part Two from a slow-paced, self-reflecting sci-fi epic, into an all-out war movie, as Paul Atreides rallies the Fremen against the Emperor.
Before the release of Dune: Part Two, Denis Villeneuve promised the second entry in the trilogy would be an all-out war film. While some audiences felt short-changed by that statement, the edited trailer finally makes good on it. Like 28 Years Later, the edited trailer for Dune: Part Two is incredibly tense. We wonder if “Boots” can make any movie tense. Someone, please re-edit Jingle All the Way with “Boots.”
‘Dune Part Three’ Is Coming
Denis Villeneuve shocked the world with Dune in 2021. Frank Herbert’s seminal novel of the same name was long considered unadaptable. David Lynch had a go in 1984, but despite that rendition having its fans, it is far from Villeneuve’s incredible version. So, when Denis Villeneuve caused lightning to strike twice with the immense success of Dune: Part Two, fans couldn’t wait for the director to round out the trilogy. Dune: Messiah is the final film in Villeneuve’s trilogy and will adapt the eponymous second novel by Frank Herbert.
Fans are still somewhat in the dark about when to expect Dune: Messiah, especially as it was rumored that Villeneuve would step away to direct a separate movie before returning to Arrakis for the final installment. However, Villeneuve recently confirmed that Dune: Messiah is his next directorial effort. Additionally, fans now know roughly when the film will arrive in theaters. Dune: Messiah will be released sometime in 2026.
