Does Dune: Part Two have a Post-Credits Scene?
Dune: Part Two is the second chapter of Denis Villeneuve’s adaptation of Frank Herbert’s 1965 novel and it stars returning cast members Timothée Chalamet, Rebecca Ferguson, and Josh Brolin in pivotal lead roles.
A lot of new faces are introduced in this second installment, including Austin Butler as the sinister Feyd-Rautha and Zendaya as the Fremen warrior Chani.
The critical reaction has been strong for this one with our very own Noah Petrillo calling the movie “a spectacle that transcends a typical hero story and becomes a force of nature” in his review of Dune: Part Two.
With a movie this good, it’s understandable that fans of the saga don’t want the story to end. If you’re among that number, you might be one of the many sitting in theaters waiting for a post-credits scene.
But is there a post-credits scene at the very end of Dune: Part Two?
Does Dune: Part Two have a post-credits scene?
Dune: Part Two takes a surprising turn at its conclusion but we aren’t going to reveal that here for fear of spoilers. You may be startled by the final scenes, so much so that you might be yearning for a post-credits scene to preview events in the third movie.
Sadly, you’re going to be disappointed as there is no post-credits scene in Dune: Part Two.
You shouldn’t expect a post-credits sequence in any of Denis Villeneuve’s movies as according to a review he gave to NME after the release of Dune’s first chapter, he doesn’t like them. He said:
“I don’t like post-credits scenes…there is a very specific final emotion that I was looking for with the final frame [of Dune] and I don’t want to mess with that.
“So no, I don’t use post-credits scenes. I’ve never done that and I would never.”
Of course, those audience members whose bums were aching after Dune: Part Two’s nearly 3-hour running time might be glad to know there is no post-credit scene.
But those who do want to see more of the Duniverse are likely disappointed that there was nothing after the credits.
Thankfully, Dune: Chapter Three will continue the story but as it’s not likely to be released until 2027 at the earliest, fans have a fairly long time to wait for the concluding installment of Villeneuve’s epic sci-fi saga.
