Part Two sees the confrontation between Paul (Timothée Chalamet) and Feyd-Rautha (Austin Butler)
The word Muad’Dib has several meanings in the world of Dune. It is both a small, saucer-eared mouse that scurries across the desolate surface of Arrakis, and the chosen Fremen name of Paul Atreides, symbolising his destiny as one wise in the ways of the desert. For Dune director Denis Villeneuve and his star Timothée Chalamet, the word has added significance – ‘Muad’Dib time’ was the message Villeneuve sent Chalamet when Dune: Part Two got the greenlight in October 2021.
