Dune: Part Two might be delayed, but it’s still going to be pretty long.
Despite rumorsthat the sequel would be a hefty 3 hours and 15 minutes long, Eirin, the official Japanese rating organization for film, says otherwise. According to theEirinwebsite (as screenshot and shared by a fan), the official runtime is 2 hours and 45 minutes. This is only 11 minutes longer thanDune: Part One.
Dune: Part Two, helmed once again by Villeneuve, sees Timothée Chalamet return as Paul Atreides, alongside other returning cast members Zendaya as Chani, Javier Bardem as Stilgar, and Rebecca Ferguson Lady Jessica. New additions to the cast include Léa Seydoux as Lady Margot, Florence Pugh as Princess Irulan, Christopher Walken as Padyszach Imperator Szaddam IV, and Austin Butler as the villainous (and bald) Feyd-Rautha Harkonnen.
