Warner Bros. has unveiled an announcement teaser for the sci-fi film Dune 2. It shows Paul Atreides getting ready to ride the sandworm, and shows off the image of the villainous Fade-Route Harkonnen, played by Oscar nominee Austin Butler.

The long-awaited second half of the epic adaptation of Frank Herbert's science fiction novel Dune will continue the tale of Paul's (Timothy Chalamet) journey with the Fremen and introduce a host of new characters, including Florence Pugh as Princess Irulan and Christopher Walken as Emperor Shaddam IV.

Who is Feyd-Rauta Harkonnen?
Baron Vladimir Harkonnen's nephew and second in line of succession after Rabban. Considered to be more moderate than the rest of his clan. In fact was the titleholder for only a few hours until he was killed in a duel by Paul. It is not yet known how much of his part in the film will match the literary source material.
