This just in from industry sources, i.e. Gilbert, the guy down the hall who reads Variety: Peter Berg isn’t directing Dune anymore. You know, the Hancock guy. He was going to direct a Dune remake. He’s not anymore.

Morel also did Banlieue 13, so I think we can look forward to some major Fremen parkour action.
