I… am assuming / hoping they will just pretend all the … basically straight to dvd sequels… do not exist.

Ok, actually read the article: It’s going straight to the actual source material, the 1959 book… which… could actually be pretty interesting, there are a lot of non total parody ways you could portray that future world, and you could of course put your own spin on it and change some plot or worldlore or characters and come out with your own thing.

Blade Runner, for example… diverges fairly significantly, in many ways, from the actual book, Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?

Of course, it could also be terrible, or mid. Who knows! But it seems more like its going to be a different attempt at adapting the book to film, not a sequel to the Veerhoven movie.

Maybe we’ll get Lynch Dune, maybe we’ll get Villenueve Dune, maybe we’ll get SyFy channel Dune, lol.

Completely off topic, but I first read that as ‘DNA’, did a double take.

At this point, an announcement that whoever is in charge of all DNA continuing to work just stepped down or got fired… wouldn’t really seem that out of character for this timeline.
