David Lynch says he'll "never watch" Denis Villeneuve's Dune movies [1]

['Devin Nealy']

Date: 2023-04-06

Making a Dune movie is a herculean task. The narrative takes place largely within the minds of the book's central cast, and the action that occurs in the corporeal realm is glacial. At the same time, Dune is replete with so many beautifully detailed passages about imaginative concepts that it's practically begging for an infinite number of live-action adaptations. At present, the auteur genius Denis Villeneuve is the steward of Dune's present and future in live-action. However, in the 80s, David Lynch was the man responsible for bringing Arrakis and the Kwisatz Haderach to life.

Lynch's struggles with the studio during the production of his version of Dune have been well documented and have caused the director to look back at the project with a certain level of bitterness. According to Comicbook.com, not only does Lynch want to move on from his time on Arrakis, but he has no intention of watching Denis Villeneuve's spin on Frank Herbet's classic novel.
