First Dune: Part Three trailer shows Paul, Chani and Scytale

Legendary and Warner Bros. released the first trailer for Dune: Part Three, the epic conclusion to Denis Villeneuve’s trilogy, which promises a grim but darkly beautiful end. Timothée Chalamet returns and is heard delivering a guttural war chant. The trailer is light on storytelling but reveals Paul Atreides and Chani’s children and offers glimpses of the cost of the jihad fought in Paul’s name.

In Frank Herbert’s novel the religious war consumes more than 60 billion lives, and the trailer alludes to Muad'Dib himself being consumed by the conflict. "I'm not afraid to die," Paul says in the trailer. "But I must not die. Yet." The cast includes Timothée Chalamet as Paul, Zendaya as Chani, Rebecca Ferguson as Lady Jessica, Javier Bardem as Stilgar, Florence Pugh as Empress Irulan, Charlotte Rampling as Gaius Helen Mohiam and Anya Taylor-Joy as Alia, all reprising roles.

Jason Momoa returns as Hayt (née Duncan Idaho), while Robert Pattinson joins the cast as Scytale, a Tleilaxu Face Dancer.
