The show is a prequel, mostly about the Bene Gesserit:

The next movie, which was dependent on the success of Dune 2, is based on book #2:

Future
Villeneuve has repeatedly expressed interest in making a third film based on Dune Messiah, the second novel in the series, adding that the possibility for the film depended on the success of Dune: Part Two.[145][146][147] Spaihts also reiterated in March 2022 that Villeneuve had plans for a third film as well as the television spin-off series Dune: Prophecy.[148] In August 2023, Villeneuve said the third film would serve as the conclusion of a trilogy.[149] Villeneuve began developing a script for the third film in 2023.[150] In February 2024, Villeneuve said the script was "almost finished" but also said he "[does not] want to rush it", citing Hollywood's tendency of focusing on release dates over a film's overall quality,[151] and adding "I want to make sure that if we go back there a third time that it'll be worth it, and that it would make something even better than Part Two".[25]
Ahead of Dune: Part Two's release, Zimmer revealed he was already writing music for a third film after Villeneuve came in and "wordlessly" put Dune Messiah on his desk.[152]
