Dune has had its fair share of adaptation attempts. Denis Villeneuve and David Lynch brought Frank Herbert's sci-fi novel to the big screen in 2021 and 1984, respectively, while Ridley Scott and Alejandro Jodorowsky also made their own efforts that never came to fruition.
Herbert himself also made an attempt to commit his book to celluloid with a whopping 321-page script recently rediscovered by Max Evry, a film journalist and author of A Masterpiece in Disarray: David Lynch's Dune – An Oral History (via Inverse).
