Dune Gets a Fan-Made Poster That Looks Better Than Most Movie Posters


Dune is shaping up to be a huge sci-fi epic that could end up being one of the best films of 2020 since it has an all-star cast and Dennis Villeneuve, one of the best directors in the business right now. We've already seen a couple of images that have given us high hopes for this two-part film series but we're all still waiting for a trailer or poster to keep up the excitement. Thankfully, artist Harley Turnbull has given us an awesome fan-made poster, one better than most movie posters.

Managing to get some of the images released and using the backgrounds that can be found pretty easily, Turnbull managed to make it an awesome little poster here. Mixing up the desert with some imagery from the cosmos is also pretty cool, while the colors manage to avoid that annoying color palette that almost every Disney film uses. Seriously, look at The Force Awakens and Aladdin.

Sci-fi fans often consider Dune to be one of the foundations of modern storytelling, giving us one of the most unique worlds in fiction. It clearly influenced films like Star Wars so when you see things like sandworms or creatures similar to it, you will almost/always think of Dune. While 2020 has sucked so far, let's at least hope the year is a good one to launch this movie.

As of this writing, Dune is scheduled for a December 18 release.
