Denis Villeneuve's Dune and Dune: Part Two will return to theaters beginning November 13 for a double-feature event ahead of the third installment's December 18 release. Warner Bros. is bringing both films back to IMAX screens on November 13, followed by separate showings from November 14 to 18. The rerelease will include an exclusive sneak peek at Dune: Part Three.
The 2021 Dune runs 155 minutes, while Dune: Part Two clocks in at 165 minutes, totaling 320 minutes for the full double-feature experience with intermission.
This theatrical rereleasing strategy mirrors efforts from other sci-fi and fantasy franchises. In January, Fathom released the Extended Editions of Peter Jackson's The Lord Of The Rings trilogy in theaters to mark the 25th anniversary of The Fellowship Of The Ring's theatrical release.
AMC will not have its new two-holed Sandworm popcorn bucket available for purchase during this rerelease event. The bucket becomes available for purchase in December.
