"Dune: Part Two" was one of 2024's biggest films critically, financially, and now, awards-wise, as it's on a similar run as the first film was in 2021 through early 2022. "Dune" went on to receive 10 Oscar nominations and six wins: Best Cinematography, Best Film Editing, Best Production Design, Best Original Score, Best Sound, and Best Visual Effects. The second film impressively ups the scale, delivering one of the grandest big-screen achievements audiences have experienced in their lifetimes, and we're proud to have many members of the crew here to dive back into the sands of Arrakis with us as Oscar voting gets underway for the 97th Academy Awards.
