Dune: Part Three Tickets Go on Sale and First Single Available
Warner Bros. Pictures and Legendary Pictures have announced that Dune: Part Three tickets are now on sale. WaterTower Music has also released “Desert Chant,” the first single from the film’s soundtrack by two-time Academy Award- and five-time Grammy-winning composer Hans Zimmer and four-time Academy Award and Grammy nominee Timothée Chalamet.
Dune: Part Three brings Academy Award-nominated filmmaker Denis Villeneuve’s epic trilogy to a breathtaking conclusion. The third installment is set nearly two decades after Paul Atreides (Chalamet) seized control of the Imperium.
Now a ruthless Emperor, Paul must face the consequences of his reign as old allies return, terrifying new threats emerge, and betrayal lurks in every shadow.
Haunted by visions of Imperial collapse and the reappearance of his long-lost love, Paul is drawn into a sweeping conspiracy, with Chani at the heart of its unfolding mystery. As enemies close in, Paul must confront the true cost of power and the fate of those he loves the most.
The film stars Oscar nominee Timothée Chalamet, Zendaya, Jason Momoa, Oscar nominee Florence Pugh, Rebecca Ferguson, and Isaach de Bankolé, as well as Oscar nominee Charlotte Rampling, Anya Taylor-Joy, Robert Pattinson, and Oscar winner Javier Bardem.
Oscar-nominated Villeneuve directs from a screenplay by Villeneuve and Brian K. Vaughan, based on the novels written by Frank Herbert. The film is produced by Oscar nominees Mary Parent, Tanya Lapointe, Villeneuve, Cale Boyter, and Joe Caracciolo, Jr.
The movie is executive produced by Joshua Grode, Thomas Tull, Herbert W. Gains, Brian Herbert, Byron Merritt, Kim Herbert, Kevin J. Anderson, Richard P. Rubinstein, John Harrison, and Jessica Derhammer.
Joining Villeneuve behind the camera are Oscar-winning director of photography Linus Sandgren, Oscar-winning production designer Patrice Vermette, Oscar-winning editor Joe Walker, Oscar-nominated costume designer Jacqueline West, Oscar-winning visual effects supervisor Paul Lambert and visual effects supervisor Mag Sarnowska, Oscar-winning visual effects house DNEG, Oscar-nominated casting director Francine Maisler, and Oscar-winning composer Hans Zimmer.
Warner Bros. Pictures and Legendary Pictures are presenting a Legendary Pictures production in association with Image Nation Studios.
Dune: Part Three will release in theaters and IMAX across North America on December 18, 2026, and internationally beginning December 16, 2026. The film will be distributed worldwide by Warner Bros. Pictures and in China by Legendary East.
From Dune: Part Three (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack), the single “Desert Chant” is available now on all major digital platforms. The song begins quietly, with Chalamet humming. Then it opens up into a rousing, epic war chant, setting the tone for the final chapter of Denis Villeneuve’s saga.
For Hans Zimmer, returning to Arrakis meant returning to the book that first lit his imagination as a teenager, the same book that, years later, would bond him with Villeneuve.
“When two teenagers are deeply moved by the same novel that lets their imagination run wild, so wild that the mysticism and philosophy that captured their souls never lets them go, they will inevitably meet and become creative brothers,” says Hans Zimmer.
“For me, the beauty of working on Dune was that it would take me back into a time of being full of youthful imagination, where everything was true, and the impossible was possible. I truly believe that Denis and I never stopped dreaming those dreams the book lit like fire in us teenagers, but now we had learned the craft and knowledge, having done a few films, to turn our mental images into reality.”
