Denis Villeneuve sees the next Bond film as his way out of Arrakis

CultureCrave shares Villeneuve's comments via Empire: He said he wanted to return to 'Dune' not out of nostalgia but with a willingness to be severe with the material. Once 'Dune 3' was done, he thought he would need a “very powerful rocket” to pull him away from Arrakis. Being asked to direct the next Bond film, he said, felt like what he needed.
