For Stilgar you'd need someone who looked like a young Kabir Bedi but no names come to me
Jessica Chastain could work as Lady Jessica

I hope the Fremen don't look like arabs though. They don't have to be dark skinned.

lets say just using mostly actors villeneuve has worked with let's do the following..

jake gyllenhaal as duke leto

Okay, but they literally are space Arabs...

emily blunt as lady jessica

Baron Vladimir Harkonnen: Harvey Weinstein

they're dark skinned in the book

They are described as a middle eastern like culture though

what was his fucking problem?

jeremy renner as duncan idaho

michael stuhlbarg as dr. yueh

nah needs to be asian

try Donnie Yen

Duke Leto

only because it pisses Sup Forums off
And they have similar names, I suppose.

ana de armas as chani

A beginning is a very delicate time. Know then that it is the year 2021. The United States is ruled by the God Emperor Trump the First, my father. In this time, the most magnificent structure in the universe is The Wall. The Wall protects life. The Wall expands the middle class. The Wall is vital to Are Economy. The Diamond Guild and its rabbis, who inbreeding has mutated over 4,000 years, use fiat currency, which gives them the ability to rob the middle class. That is, extract any amount of money from Are Economy without working.

Oh, yes. I forgot to tell you — The Wall exists on only one border in the entire hemisphere. A desolate, dry border with vast barrios. Hidden away within the slums of these barrios are a people known as steezers, who have long held a prophecy that a man would come, a cuckold who would grant them true amnesty. The country is Mexico, also known as That Shithole.

sarah gadon as princess irulan

Paul

the canon doesn't justify making us look at ugly desert fucks for several hours.

...

benecio del toro as liet kynes

I approve

He would be a good Leto... I kinda see some William Hurt like performance out of him

paul dano as piter

you may as well cast emma watson if you want him to be a fucking soy boy.

Amy Schumer as Shai-Hulud
The biggest role of them all

Or the emperor

dylan minnette as feyd

Paul is supposed to be like 15 years old though.

or even maybe paul but both of them need to be younger up and coming guys prolly

Paul is a twink though

Goose as Duncan

but there is a time skip so you have to cast with that in mind too

Benedict Cumberbatch as a Sandworm (motion capture)

Dune is just a glib facsimile of Warhammer 40k. I mean, 'God Emperor'? Fucking hell. GW should sue the fuck out of Hack Hubert.

josh brolin as gurney halleck (maybe even outright swapped with renner as idaho too)

...

They are fucking nomadic desert people trying to defend their natural resources from an imperialist power. If that ain't Arabs then I don't know what is

You are aware that according to the book, Duke Leto is a nigger and Paul a manlet halfbreed? ("Olive skin, small for his age")

The novels state that they are Greek you fucking brainlet.

nobody wants to look at cousin-fuckers on the big screen though.

or like just tan and prepubescent

You know there are Caucasian nomadic desert people, right?

No they don't you dumb fuck. They are stating a family legend. Do you really think that anyone living a couple of thousand years in the future will be able to trace their lineage back to a mythical person?

Paul is a halfbreed manlet.

Their name comes from a noble greek house and some of their ancestry. However, you don't know what Bene Gesserit breeding did to that.

The Fremen aren't arabs. Sure, their culture is similar in some aspects (the clothing comes to mind). However in their culture women are just as valuable as men and get the same opportunities. They also don't defend the spice at all. In fact, their plan to terraform Dune will result in the extinction of the sandworm who makes the spice.

>prepubescent

He's 14.

so i've gotten through most of denis' marquee actors. there are other like ryan gosling, amy adams but it'd be unlikely to cast them in smaller roles.

still having a hard time with below and probably have to cast outside villeneuve's roster

baron harkonnen
padishah emperor
fenring + lady fenring
reverend mother
alia
thufir
stilgar
jamis
mapes

fucking hack

Lynchs Dune is a masterpiece of sci fi

only bookfags and plebs hate it

Villnueve will make the most bland dune imaginable

they are related to the emperor, who is a fair-skinned redhead with a blonde daughter.

Ryan Gosling would be best as Duncan.

I actually agree with these.

Stay home and wank then, Sup Forums. You won't be missed.

You know most people who like the lynch movie are book fags right? Even herbert liked the film. It's incorrect to say that book fans hate the lynch movie.

I don't want to see dark skinned people in movies

Dane Dehan as Paul

>FAAAATHHHERRR!!!!! THE SLEEPER HAS AWAKENED!

WE

And Duke Leto is specifically described as olive skinned.

Here's an example of an olive skinned man.

Not dark enough for duncan

luv best chani

or dafne keen if they are going for teen paul and chani

This is what an olive skinned looks like

Too old.

Has any of youmever read the book? Paul and Chani are teenagers.

olive is just "not pale" so everything else is fair game

dave bautista as rabban
you know its right

Not old enough. He doesn't look like an authority figure

i refer you to the lower portion of my post

Too much soy. You need someone like the hound to play Duncan Idaho

the smithee cut is ok.
the only really retarded thing about it is changing the prana bindu fighting stuff into shouty sonic rayguns

Technically it has been to describe Mediterranean looking people

Not dark enough

Bookfag here
It was a pile of shit

No he's not old enough. Cast him as paul but not duke Leto.

i really hope it succeeds this time, i need to see sequel after sequel, hell, the 2nd trilogy is made up almost entirely of females so it will yick all the SJW boxes

What? This is who you pictured as feyd when you read the book? This thread is full of retarded suggestions but this takes the cake.

Let's face the elephant in the room: diversity. There is no way this movie will be all-white like the Lynch version, so which characters would we be okay with being BLACKED? I, for one, think Duncan Idaho played by Idris Elba would be fine.

No fucking soy boys. This isn't nu wars it's dune

...

too hot to play rev mother gaius helen mohiam?

There's a few worms in the book, better ask DV if the budget can stretch to encompass dunham too.

Fair enough. But whoever plays Duncan needs to look masculine and he needs to look like a deadly warrior. He needs to look intimidating

Game of thrones had no problems with casting older actors


I haven't read the books. Is it relevant hiw old they are ? Can it be sensibly changed without fucking up the lore ?

...

yeah its tricky since you cant just make the fremen the token non-white characters because that becomes racist pretty quickly. having the fremen be more of a wide culture as a combination of different tribes of varying skin tones could work.

and yeah idris as anything plz

I still can't get over how horribly miscast in MIB 3 he was, a joy to watch in BE no one has done oily jew quite like him.

...

nobody gives a shit about what you want

...

Antje as Lady Jessica

stilgar or gurney

Vinnie Jones as Hallick

We were all scrawny boys with underdeveloped muscles, user. You might not understand this though since you have not hit puberty yet. You probably looked like a complete faggot when you were 15.

No white people then
Got it

So? Game of thrones doesn't deserve to be in the same sentence as Dune. Get out of here with that faggotry.

christian bale as the baron, we know he likes rapid weight loss/gains

Not dark enough for Stilgar

Jay Stoklasa as Vladimir Harkonnen

hopefully they keep steven berkoff away from this one, he completely ruined stilgar form me

HughJActorMan as Duke Leto

Kurt Russell as Duke Leto

>America unironically has a princess
strange times
