The 2024 annual science fiction movie " Dune 2", 15 movie easter eggs and deleted clips will give you a deeper understanding of the story behind the movie:

2. The scene in which Paul and Chini gave birth to a child and the child was killed in a sneak attack was deleted from the movie.

However, in the movie, the sister Elijah has not had time to give birth, and her grown-up state only appears in Paul's vision.

In the original work, it was the four-year-old sister Elia who killed Baron Harkonnen.
5. Every time Baron Harkonnen bathed in the oil pool, the maids around him were all wearing white transparent clothes.
After all, Baron Harkonnen couldn't even stand up after his flotation device was removed. This was when his defense was at its weakest. His unobstructed attire was also to prevent him from hiding weapons and reduce the risk of being assassinated.
6. About the origin of the name Paul Muad'Dib.
is different from the movie. The original book actually takes place after the duel between Paul and the Freeman Jamis.

7. The movie deleted the background introduction of Mrs. Margot of the sorority who was pregnant with Federosa's child.
Madame Margot is actually the wife of the emperor's most trusted person, Count Fenlin, and this Count Fenlin is actually a nearly successful work of the sisterhood's breeding plan. Unfortunately, Count Fenlin was born a eunuch in the physical level.
8. In fact, the actor who played Count Fenlin in the movie was Tim Blake Nelson. Unfortunately, all his scenes were deleted from the feature film.

Paul drank the water of life and was in a state of suspended animation. Chini had a conflict with Paul's mother Jessica, and finally slapped him and left.
