The third part of Denis Villeneuve's sci-fi epic, Dune, will be filmed in the deserts of Abu Dhabi later this year, according to the Abu Dhabi Film Commission.
'The sweeping dunes of the Liwa Desert return to the big screen as filming begins in Abu Dhabi later this year for the next chapter in the Dune saga,' the commission said on Instagram.
The Liwa Desert of Abu Dhabi was previously used to film parts of the first two films.
The massively successful franchise, set around the story of Paul Atreides on the desert planet of Arrakis, stars Timothee Chalamet, Zendaya, Jason Momoa, Florence Pugh, Javier Bardem, Josh Brolin and Robert Pattinson. It is based on Frank Herbert's 1965 novel of the same name.
