Variety reports that following the massive box office success of Dune: Part Two, Legendary has tapped Denis Villeneuve to helm a third installment, which will presumably continue the story of Paul Atreides' journey to conquer the galaxy. Earlier this year, Villeneuve told Empire that he had already sketched out the script, thinking about where he wanted to take the Dune franchise in the future.
Legendary has not yet announced any timeframe for the start of production on Dune 3. But the studio plans for the film to be released before its next project with Villeneuve, an adaptation of Nuclear War: A Scenario, Annie Jacobsen's 2024 Pulitzer Prize-nominated book about plausible nuclear war scenarios. By the looks of it, Villeneuve will be very busy over the next couple of years, and his next projects will likely leave us in various states of shock and awe when they hit our screens.
