Arrival director Denis Villeneuve’s new adaptation of Frank Herbert’s Dune is one of the most anticipated films of 2020. To put it lightly. And today original Dune star Kyle MacLachlan let us know that he’s excited to see the new film.
MacLachlan told Kevin Smith and IMDB: “I’m very excited to see it. There will be another one, there will be a couple of us out there, running around, there’s plenty of room I think and Timothée I think will do a fantastic job. I’m very much looking forward to the vision (Denis) has. David Lynch, of course, it’s a very specific vision, so this will be something completely different I’m sure. Why not have both stand on their own merits?“

Dune takes place in the year 10191, and centers on a spice called melange, the most valuable substance known in the universe, and its only source, the desert planet Arrakis. Arrakis is awarded to Duke Leto Atreides over his enemies, the Harkonnens. The Harkonnens then violently seize back Arrakis and it is up to Paul, Leto’s son, to lead the natives of Arrakis in a battle for control of the planet and its spice.
