On the Harkonnen side, there is the cunning, weapon happy Feyd-Rautha Harkonnen, played by ‘Austin Butler, who has his own distinctive look.
There’s a closer look at the Harkonnen reaction to news that Paul has survived the attack (spoiler alert: they’re not pleased) and the impact of his new prophet status on the Imperial forces (second spoiler alert: things go boom).
But Paul is also worried about what his prophesized status truly means: his visions have always ended in death and darkness, and he’s especially worried about Chani. At least Gurney is there to reassure him, and by the end of the trailer, it appears that Paul has truly embraced his destiny.
