How to watch Dune

Dune is a popular series of books written by Frank Herbert. They were originally published in 1965 but much like the Lord of the Rings, the books have remained popular and they have been adapted to both film and as a min-series.

Dune (2021)

Dune has been adapted to film only once before in 1984, and a three part mini-series for TV in 2000, and neither one lived up to expectations that fans of the series had. A new film adaptation for the novel was released this year and it’s been well received. Dune was released on October 22, 2021, a full year later than it was originally intended to be released. It has an impressive 8.2 rating on IMDb.

How to watch Dune

October is long behind us which means that Dune is probably no longer showing in theaters, and it should be available to stream online. It was available on HBO Max for a while but its run has ended. 

If you want to watch Dune, you will have to wait a while. You can pre-order the title but it is unlikely to be available online anywhere before January 2022.

Dune can streamed  on iTunes for $24.99 (rent) or $29.99 (Buy) in the US but in other countries, it may only be available on or after January 13, 2022. 

Dune is also available on Amazon Prime but only in the US. You can rent it for $24.99 and buy it for $29.99.

Dune will return to HBO Max in January 2022. If you don’t mind waiting, and you’re already subscribed to the service, you’ll be able to watch the movie at the start of the next year.

Dune (2021) on Blu-ray

Dune will be released on Blu-ray on January 31, 2022. That’s a little over a month away but since the movie is no longer showing in most theaters, there’s little you can do other than wait. Once the movie is available on Blu-ray, there will be more streaming options available for it at as well. For viewers outside the US, waiting until January is the only option.

Dune in theaters

Dune was in theaters in October 2021 and it’s unlikely for a movie to show for more than a month, let alone two months. That said, Dune is based on a beloved series of books, and much like the Harry Potter franchise, it is highly possible that some theaters are still showing it. You can check your local theaters and still find a late night or early viewing of the movie. There are no guarantees though; if you find it still playing in a theater, you’re lucky.
