‘Dune’: First Look at Zendaya
Variety has given us the first look at Zendaya in Denis Villeneuve‘s film adaptation of a classic sci-fi novel Dune, which will cover roughly the first half of the book.
According to the reports, Spiderman: Homecoming‘s star will play Chani, a mysterious desert dweller. Check out the first look images below.
Set in the distant future, Dune follows various noble houses around the universe as they feud against one another. The action takes place mostly on the dangerous desert planet called Arrakis, which houses the most valuable substance in the universe, “the spice”, a precious life-extending drug that provides superhuman levels of thought, and makes faster-than-light space travel possible. Duke Leto Atreides is an appointed steward of planet Arrakis. Together with Bene Gesserit concubine Lady Jessica, young son and heir Paul, and most trusted advisers to Arrakis named Dune, he takes control of the spice mining operation.
Dune is scheduled to premiere on December 18, 2020.
