Director Denis Villeneuve, 58, unveiled the trailer at a special event.

And I went back home. I said to my crew, I'm taking a break. That's it. Bye-bye. And I went back home and I kept awaking in the middle of the night with those images. I was supposed to do another movie in the meantime, but the image of Dune: Part Three, inspired by Dune Messiah, kept coming back, and I said, 'Oh, all right, let's do it!'," according to People.
