Denis Villeneuve, the French Canadian director currently up for an Academy Award for his work on Arrival, has been tapped to reboot Dune, taking over the franchise from David Lynch, who followed up his 1980 critical darling The Elephant Man with the 1984 cult classic Dune.
With this news, Mr. Villeneuve cements himself as a giant in the realm of science-fiction film, as his next feature, Blade Runner 2049, to be released in October 2017, is also hotly anticipated.
