Denis Villeneuve is set to direct a third “Dune” film, following the massively successful “Dune: Part Two,” the magazine Variety has confirmed.

No production timeline for the third film has been announced yet, but the film is expected to debut before Villeneuve’s next project, an adaptation of the Pulitzer Prize-nominated book, “Nuclear War: A Scenario.”

Earlier this year, Villeneuve said that he had already “put words on paper” thinking about where he would like to take the “Dune” franchise going forward.
