The third trailer for Dune: Part Two has been revealed and in the clip, we see an all-out war breakout on Arrakis.

Anchoring the new trailer is the relationship between Timothée Chalamet’s Paul Atreides and Zendaya’s Chani as their love story underpins a lot of the action and also seeks to explain the leveling nature of Arrakis as it becomes the crucible of a galactic war. We also get more glimpses of Christopher Walken’s scheming Shaddam IV, the Padishah Emperor of the Known Universe and also Austin Butler’s ruthless and psychotic Feyd-Rautha Harkonnen.

But the most jaw-dropping action from the trailer is the scenes of war, as the great houses battle on the desert planet. We see the legions of forces from the Harkonnens and Atreides as well as the Fremen and Sardaukar warriors all engage in combat, but also see the awesome desert power of the mighty sandworms.

Dune: Part Two is directed by Denis Villeneuve and the cast includes Timothée Chalamet (Paul Atreides), Zendaya (Chani) Rebecca Ferguson (Lady Jessica Atreides), Javier Bardem (Stilgar), Josh Brolin (Gurney Halleck), Stellan Skarsgard (Baron Vladimir Harkonnen), Dave Bautista (Glossu Rabban Harkonnen), Charlotte Rampling (Reverend Mother Mohiam) and Stephen McKinley Henderson (Thufir Hawat).

Newcomers to the saga include Austin Butler as Feyd Rautha, Florence Pugh as Princess Irulan Corrino, Léa Seydoux as Lady Margot and Souheila Yacoub as Shishakli.
