The film will be released across 4,100 theaters in the U.S. and Canada over the weekend, and is currently projected to generate $30 million to $40 million in its opening weekend.

The movie is also debuting simultaneously on HBO Max, which may affect theater ticket sales.

Dune is a 1965 novel by Frank Herbert and the book was turned into a 1984 movie starring Kyle MacLachlan.

A mythic and emotionally charged hero’s journey, Dune tells the story of Paul Atreides (Timothee Chalamet), a brilliant and gifted young man born into a great destiny beyond his understanding, who must travel to the most dangerous planet in the universe to ensure the future of his family and his people. As malevolent forces explode into conflict over the planet’s exclusive supply of the most precious resource in existence—a commodity capable of unlocking humanity’s greatest potential—only those who can conquer their fear will survive.

The film also stars Zendaya, Stellan Skarsgard, Jason Momoa, Oscar Isaac, Josh Brolin, Javier Bardem, Rebecca Ferguson, and more.
