Montréal recevra de la grande visite à l’occasion de la présentation de Dune : Part Two au Cinéma Banque Scotia, le 28 février : le réalisateur Denis Villeneuve et l’acteur principal Timothée Chalamet assisteront à la première du film tant attendu.
Des projections IMAX en version originale anglaise et avec sous-titres en français sont prévues.
Afin d’avoir une chance d’obtenir des billets, le studio Warner Bros invite les cinéphiles à « suivre [leurs] networks” on which competitions will be organized.
The Wednesday evening screenings will be preceded by a red carpet and a special event for fans of the universe created by Frank Herbert. The cinema on rue Sainte-Catherine Ouest will look like Arrakis for the occasion.
In a Warner Bros. promotional video, Denis Villeneuve mentions that he is “very excited” about his upcoming visit to Montreal, while Timothée Chalamet adds: “Nice to see you on February 28.”
This is the only stop in Canada for the Quebec filmmaker and the Franco-American actor as part of their promotional tour.
The director and several of the actors in the nearly three-hour feature film are currently in Paris where they are continuing to promote the film after a visit to Mexico last week.
