DUNE’s Denis Villeneuve Is Directing the Next JAMES BOND Movie

Denis Villeneuve, the acclaimed director of Dune and Blade Runner 2049, has expressed a strong desire to direct a James Bond film, calling it a "dream" of his.

Speaking on the Happy Sad Confused podcast, Villeneuve stated his key condition: he would only take on the project if he were given the same level of creative freedom he has with the Dune franchise. His vision would involve a return to the original Ian Fleming novels to create a Bond that is more "theatrical" and "grounded."

However, he made it clear that this is a future ambition. His current priority is completing his work on the Dune saga, meaning a Bond film would only be possible after he is finished with the world of Arrakis.
