It’s been a long time coming but the critically-acclaimed Dune: Part Two is finally nearing its release.

Director Denis Villeneuve is back with an all-star cast with some returning following the end of Dune: Part One and also new players being introduced, with new actors including Austin Butler, Florence Pugh, Christopher Walken, Léa Seydoux, and Souheila Yacoub.

Dune: Part Two picks up with the fugitive Paul Atreides (Timothée Chalamet) and his pregnant mother Lady Jessica (Rebecca Ferguson) joining forces with the native people of Arrakis, the Fremen, including female warrior Chani (Zendaya) whom Paul had seen in his dreams before even meeting her.

However, their mutual enemies still loom large in the form of House Harkonnen and the treacherous Emperor Shaddam IV Corrino (Walken).

As his destiny becomes clearer, how far will Paul go to avenge his late father and seize control of the planet also dubbed Dune?

Regardless of what happens, composer Hans Zimmer is back to score the adventure. Here is your guide to the soundtrack of both Dune: Part One and Dune: Part Two.

Speaking about the soundtrack for the first film to The Hollywood Reporter, Hans Zimmer said: “If this is a movie about a planet 10,000 years from now, and it was a desert planet, [I thought] I should go and invent instruments and sounds you’ve never heard of.

“The only thing that should be a consistent, recognisable thing should be the female voice. Denis and I never even had to talk about it for any time at all.

“We always felt very strongly that the female characters are the driving force of the story. Even when Lady Jessica [Rebecca Ferguson] isn’t on the screen, there will be a femininity within the music — that felt very important.”
