Anya Taylor Joy as Alia in Dune Part Two
Summary Anya Taylor-Joy playing Alia in Dune: Part Two creates a problem for a possible Dune Messiah movie. Taylor-Joy made an unexpected appearance for only a few seconds in Dune: Part Two as Paul Atreides' sister, Alia. Taylor-Joy joining the cast of Dune is an exciting prospect, as Alia is a big character in the Dune Messiah book.
Related How should Dune: Messiah handle Anya Taylor-Joy's Alia Atreides? Having Dune: Messiah release in 2026 raises questions about Anya Taylor-Joy's role as Alia Atreides, as she's meant to be a main character in the sequel. In order to make the ages line up, it seems like they'll have to suggest that her character was born as an adult or has aged rapidly.
It will be interesting to see how a Messiah movie will get around these age discrepancies. In the book, Alia is born with the power of a Bene Gesserit Reverend Mother. Alia could use her power to age herself more rapidly. Another way Messiah could resolve the age issue is by setting the story even further into the future than the book did. Alia also has an important relationship with Duncan in the book, and a smaller age gap between the two characters could actually be a welcome improvement.
Anya Taylor-Joy was not credited for Dune: Part Two in order to keep her role in the film a secret until its release.
