Jason Momoa has expressed strong enthusiasm about potentially returning as Duncan Idaho in a hypothetical Dune: Part Three. In an interview with Men's Health, Momoa acknowledged his character's death in Dune: Part One but showed awareness of the character's future in Frank Herbert's books.

He specifically referenced Duncan Idaho's return in the novel Dune Messiah (which would be the basis for Dune 3) where the character is resurrected as a Ghola (a type of clone). Momoa called this possibility "awesome" and indicated it would be a "good future" for him if the film series continues and follows that storyline.

The article clarifies that while director Denis Villeneuve wants to make Dune: Part Three based on Dune Messiah, the film has not yet been officially greenlit. Therefore, Momoa's return as Duncan Idaho, while supported by the source material and desired by the actor, hinges on the third movie actually being produced and Villeneuve choosing to include the Ghola plotline.
