I love Denis Villeneuve as a director and Oscar Isaac as an actor, although I always imagined Duke Leto as an older character. When I saw this headline, I was thinking Duncan Idaho.

Oscar Isaac looks decently like how I imagine Leto, but he's canonically supposed to be more than a decade older than Oscar Isaac.

Cautious optimism. I will not forget how Hollywood ruined Eragon and percy jackson.

Considering this is Denis Villeneuve we’re talking about here, I’d say that’s unlikely. The man’s track record is damn near perfect.

How are they doing this movie in regards to the books? Is it just book 1, or the other two main Frank Herbert series as well?

Welp time for a reread

[Rastadogg]

The cast and crew behind this film is incredible. I'm very excited for this.

I trust Denis with any sci-fi property. as far as i'm concerned he's The Guy when it comes to scifi now

[Jimesu_Evil]

I'd cast him as Duncan for sure, not quite Leto though. I'd always imagined Gary Oldman as Leto.
