Dune, one of this year’s most anticipated films, has finally been unveiled. There was a lot of interest in the film, which was released on HBO Max at the same time as the cinemas. Dune generated around $17.5 million in revenue from the first day and was a huge success, although it was also available on the streaming service. The total weekend box office was over $40 million, which set a post-pandemic record for the Warner Brothers. Dune was also the best opening film of director Denis Villenueve’scareer.
The initial reviews from the film were also very positive. WB’s biggest expectation for the film was to break the previous pandemic record for Godzilla vs Kong. With more than 40 million in its first weekend, Dune looks like it’s going to make it. Dune’s success is important not only to the studio but also to the fans. Denis Villenueve said in a statement that if the film is successful, they will start a sequel. I hope there won’t be any big surprises, but a new generation of Dune adventure sequels that started out so well.
