Dune director Denis Villeneuve talks to Robbie Collin about his career leading up to the sci-fi epic, which stars Timothée Chalamet as Paul Atreides, a nobleman fighting for the future of his family on the desert planet of Arrakis. Based on the book by Frank Herbert and also starring Rebecca Ferguson, Oscar Isaac and Zendaya, Villeneuve's film is the first of a two-part adaptation.

In addition to Dune, French Canadian filmmaker Denis Villeneuve is best known for having directed Blade Runner 2049, Arrival, Sicario, Prisoners and Incendies. His astute attention to detail and unique visuals have established Villeneuve as one of the premier filmmakers working today.

Dune is available on digital home entertainment release now.
