Summary Although a box office and critical success, the second part of Denis Villeneuve’s Dune adaptation—Dune: Part Two —sparked curiosity among fans of author Frank Herbert’s original novel series regarding the presence of one major character: Alia Atreides. Alia, the younger sister of Timothée Chalamet’s Paul Atreides and portrayed by Anya Taylor-Joy, briefly appeared in a dream sequence but was largely omitted from the film.

However, during her reign, Alia progressively becomes more devious and power-hungry as she succumbs to Abomination, leading her to be possessed by Baron Harkonnen—his revenge for her part in his death. In the conclusion of Children of Dune and following Paul’s death, Alia regains control of her body from the Baron, secedes control of the empire to Leto II, and throws herself from a window to her death.
In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Villeneuve acknowledged that the decision was “a strong curve that we took, but I felt that it was very close to the spirit of the book.” He added that by compressing the timeline and having Lady Jessica speak to the sentient fetus, “It was a way to more precisely express how Alia becomes this abomination.
