Herbert wrote another five books on it. Every decision has a good and a bad, everything is compromised, as in life. Harrison says he's at work on the screenplay for a sequel that producer New Amsterdam Entertainment likely will have him make as a single miniseries treating the next two books in Herbert's canon. Knowing there's a trap' Harrison, like Newman, is at pains to insist that the film he's made is faithful to Herbert's concept. That last question refers to the 1984 David Lynch film which starred Kyle MacLachlan as Paul.
Movies are images and moving pictures.
Novels are words. In both men, Harrison and Newman, you hear a gathering excitement as more than a year of work heads for Sunday night's premiere. Newman suddenly says with a laugh. To tell you the truth, I have an aversion to sunglasses and parties. What viewers will see in the United States on the Sci Fi Channel is some 30 minutes shorter than a European version that screens some nudity as the Fremen get into and out of their stillsuits.
