Dune: Part Two
Summary
Dune : Part Twomight be making a massive Alia Atreides change , which could lead to six major deviations from Frank Herbert ’s iconic novel . Dune 2is adapting the second half of Herbert ’s novel , which should allow for it plenty of prison term to produce an accurate version . However , thefirst verbal description of Alia inDune 2indicates she is an embryo give notice her female parent from the uterus , which could have major consequences forDune 2 ’s story .
Alia is Paul Atreides ' sister , the girl of Lady Jessica and Duke Leto Atreides , and she becomes a central figure in theDunefranchise around the metre the firstDunemovie cease . Importantly , Alia is born with countless genetic memories and powerful prevision because Lady Jessica drinks the Water of Life while pregnant with her . Alia ’s ability play a critical persona in the 2nd half of Herbert ’s book , so if she rest an fertilized egg for the whole movie , Dune 2could be forced to make six significant changes to the novel .
The Dune : Part Two cast features both return worker from the first movie , like Timothée Chalamet and Zendaya , and newcomer like Florence Pugh .
6Dune 2 Might Not Have A Major Time Jump
Dune 2’s expected time jump might not be necessary without Alia
In Herbert ’s novel , there is a roughly two - year metre leap .
Dune 2 ’s likely Alia Atreides changecould alter the motion picture ’s narrative by removing the need for a major clip startle . In Herbert ’s novel , there is a roughly two - year time jump that occurs after Paul ’s consolidation into Fremen culture . While part of the ground for this is to give Paul time to advance influence among the Fremen and unionise their resistance to the Harkonnens , the most authoritative affair that happens during this break is the birth of Alia .
The change to Alia due to Lady Jessica ’s uptake of the Water of Life are mostly mental , which is probable why Herbert desire to expect until her body had physically developed enough to talk before continue his story . However , if Alia advises her female parent from the womb inDune 2 , then there ’s no indigence to wait for her to grow upenough to speak . Dune 2might still cut forrard some to tone up the Fremen ’s dedication to Paul , but since Lady Jessica is already pregnant with Alia , it can only skip a few month without her being gestate .

5Baron Harkonnen’s Fate In Dune 2 Will Be Different
Baron Vladimir Harkonnen’s downfall will be one of Dune 2’s defining moments
The Baron meets his luck at the point of a gom jabbar in theDunenovel .
Another pregnant modification that Alia ’s strong-arm absence fromDune 2could incur is a new fate for the nefarious Baron Vladimir Harkonnen . The Baron meets his destiny at the spot of a gom jabbar in theDunenovel , wielded by none other than two - year - honest-to-god Alia Atreides , the Baron ’s own granddaughter . While this is one of the book ’s most climactic and satisfying moment , it will obviously be impossible if Alia terminate up being an embryo for all ofDune 2 .
There are several potent options for supplant Alia as the Baron ’s grampus , but the right one is undoubtedly Lady Jessica . If she were to kill the Baron while fraught with Alia , Dune 2would be capable to stay extremely penny-pinching to the source cloth despite the potential omission of Alia . Further , Lady Jessica is really the Baron ’s daughter , which mean using her as his cause of death would support the estimation of the Baron being killed by a syndicate member .
4Paul And Chani Might Not Have A Son In Dune 2
Paul and Chani have a son in the book before fighting the Empire
If Alia is not contain duringDune 2 , then it must take space within nine months of the Harkonnens ' murder of Leto Atreides , Alia ’s father .
One of thethings that stay unknown about Dune 2is whether Paul and Chani will have a son in the cinema as they do in the book . However , if Alia is not conduct duringDune 2 , then it must take place within nine calendar month of the Harkonnens ' slaying of Leto Atreides , Alia ’s Church Father . Considering Paul does n’t run into Chani until after his Father-God ’s death , it would be impossible for them to have a child together before Lady Jessica pay birth to Alia .
Dune 2also has the luxury of being able to cut Paul and Chani ’s Logos without any major consequences because he dies early on in the al-Qur’an . His death in a Harkonnen raid is one of the lamentable part of the novel , but there probably would n’t be time inDune 2to set it up even if Alia were born during the pic . There are so many other plot phone line to take after that cut Paul and Chani ’s son would belike end up being a respectable movewhether Alia is wear or not .
3Lady Jessica Will Be Pregnant Throughout Dune 2
Lady Jessica is already pregnant by the end of Dune
Paul knows that his female parent is meaning , entail he will likely hear to keep her out of harm ’s way .
One of the more obvious changes toDune 2that will materialise if Alia is n’t bear during the flick is thatLady Jessica will stay pregnant for the whole picture show . That might seem like a minor detail , but it could actually have significant consequences if it ’s played out in good order . Paul live that his mother is pregnant , meaning he will in all probability hear to keep her out of harm ’s way for most of the movie . This could affect the manner they interact , and it could encourage Paul to angle more on Chani , so his mother can rest .
Further , Paul ’s attempts to keep his boy safe in the leger terminate up fix him killed , which could spell trouble for Lady Jessica . If he post her to one of the Fremen sietches to keep her secure , she could get catch up in one of the Empire ’s raids . Lady Jessica definitely wo n’t be kill inDune 2 , but if she gets see up in one of the raid , it ’s not unlikely that she gets captured and take to the Emperor like Alia is in the ledger .
2Emperor Shaddam IV Might Not Have An Atreides Hostage In Dune 2
Emperor Shaddam IV captures Alia in the Dune novel
The Emperor have an Atreides surety is an important musical composition of the puzzle in Herbert ’s novel .
In theDunenovel , the raid that pop Paul ’s son also captures Alia and post her to be Emperor Shaddam IV ’s surety . However , if Alia is n’t born duringDune 2 , then she obviously wo n’t be captured in a foray . The Emperor having an Atreides hostage is an important piece of the puzzler in Herbert ’s novel , so if it ’s cut from the movie it could have far - reaching consequences .
It ’s still potential that Emperor Shaddam ends up nabbing an authoritative surety — Lady Jessica being the most probable candidate — but Alia ’s possible absence cast off everything into flux . Alia ’s capture by the Empire is also what leads to her assassination of the Baron , so if nobody stop up being captured by the Emperor , then the Baron ’s death will have to be modify drastically . With that in mind , the good way to keep continuity with the book might be to make someone else the Emperor ’s surety .
1Lady Jessica Will Have An Expanded Role In Dune 2
Lady Jessica might have to fill in for her daughter
If Alia only exist as an embryo advising her female parent , then every shot with Alia will necessarily admit Lady Jessica as well .
One of the giving thingsDune 2 ’s Alia change could lead to is an expanded role for Lady Jessica . She is likely to take on most of Alia ’s storyline , meaning she ’ll be filling two persona from the playscript . Further , if Alia only exists as an embryo give notice her female parent , then every shot with Alia will necessarily include Lady Jessicaas well . All this together create it likely that Lady Jessica ’s function inDune 2will be quite meaning .
Lady Jessica might even take Alia ’s most significant duty in the novel by killing Baron Harkonnen , though it ’s hard to say for sure if that persona will go to her or not . It ’s potential Lady Jessica simply follows her story from the book and does n’t take over the majority of Alia ’s role , but if Alia is really write out from the moving picture , it will be much easier to give her duty to other character than to seek to make the fib work without them . With that in mind , Lady Jessica have an blow up role inDune : Part Twoseems like the most potential scenario .
