Summary Denis Villeneuve cleverly sets up the future of the Dune franchise throughout Dune: Part Two, including the perfect post-credits scene in the middle of the movie. The success of the first Dune movie made it possible for the filmmaker to begin thinking about the future of the series while he was making the sequel. With the first film swiftly launching a new blockbuster franchise, plans for a trilogy adapting Frank Herbert's books began to form.
Related How Dune 2 Sets Up Denis Villeneuve's Dune: Messiah Movie Adaptation Dune: Part Two nicely sets up what's to come in Denis Villeneuve's Dune Messiah. We break down what to expect next in Dune 3 based on Dune 2's ending. Anya Taylor-Joy's Alia Cameo Serves The Same Purpose As A Dune 2 Post-Credits Scene Alia's Scene Had Little Bearing On Dune 2's Plot This makes the cameo a glimpse into the future of the Dune franchise, potentially even the events of Dune 3 .
By showing the older Alia on Arrakis in the future, audiences are treated to a few teases that directly set up Dune 3. That is traditionally the main purpose of after-credits scenes in most movie franchises. It is due to this that Anya Taylor-Joy's cameo could have worked as a post-credits scene in a different version of the movie. A Dune 2 end-credits scene could have used the exact same footage showing Alia on Arrakis to set up how Villeneuve will adapt Dune: Messiah.
Anya Taylor-Joy's physical cameo in Dune 2 also copies a trick commonly used in post-credits scenes for the Marvel Cinematic Universe. This is because the franchise casting Anya Taylor-Joy is more so a promise for the future than a decision made for Dune 2. Even though Alia speaks to Jessica from in the womb, that could have easily been removed without much change to the sequel.
