The difference is that with Dune, Villeneuve hopes to appeal to the very same movie-going demographic that the MCU has catered to since day one.
The actor admitted he had a problem with the frequent script changes he had to endure while playing Thanos.
Only time will tell if audiences warm up to Villeneuve’s magnum opus in a similar manner to Marvel movies.
Ever since he played Thanos in the MCU, Josh Brolin is being seen in increasingly more blockbuster fare, from Deadpool 2 to the upcoming Dune, in which Brolin plays the role of Warmaster Gurney Halleck.
