The trailer for the epic science fiction film Dune: Part Two, the sequel to Dune: Part One released in 2021, was unveiled by Warner Bros. Pictures on Wednesday, May 3. The films, directed by Denis Villeneuve, are adapted from Frank Herbert's epic science fiction novel Dune published in 1965 and often described as the world's best-selling science fiction novel.

Facing a choice between the love of his life and the fate of the known universe, he endeavors to prevent a terrible future only he can foresee."
