SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Summary Many viewers were shocked that Paul Atreides became a villain in Dune: Part Two, but this was actually set up long before the actual reveal in the second film. Denis Villeneuve's Dune movies have stuck fairly close to the books, meaning that Paul Atreides' villainous turn wasn't shocking to fans of Frank Herbert's original sci-fi novel.

Chani's "Oppressors" Line Set Up Paul's Villain Turn In Dune 2's Opening Close In the world of Dune, the Fremen are a constantly oppressed group of people, with much of Dune focusing on thier uprising against their oppressors. Throughout Dune: Part Two, Paul becomes sympathetic to the plight of the Fremen, with his acceptance of the role of Lisan al Gaib causing him to become the figurehead of this uprising.

Other Clues To Paul Becoming A Villain In Dune Close Although Chani's oppressors line is the biggest hint to Paul becoming a villain in Dune: Part Two, it is far from the only one. Firstly, the dangers of a Holy War are clearly established in Dune: Part Two, with Paul even knowing that some disastrous effects will occur if he begins one. Despite this, Dune: Part Two ends with Paul starting the Holy War, cementing his role as a villain.

Dune 2 Makes It Clear That Paul Atreides Is A Villain Close Although it was questionable if Paul was a villain in the first Dune movie, Dune: Part Two made it clear that Paul is a villain. Paul slowly creeps to the point of villainy throughout the beginning of Dune: Part Two, with him becoming radicalized and in turn radicalizing the other Fremen.
