Well, at least he will live to a much greater age than his grandfather.

Is this the week before Avengers Doomsday? I might have to go to a theatre.

If they actually ever make the latter books, I will be shocked and impressed. Instant cult classics for the "go to the movies stoned" crowd, if nothing else.

I saw people on Facebook angry that Jason Momoa is back, because "Hollywood has run out of ideas." Oh, you folks are in for a ride.

I can't quite say that I like God-Emperor of Dune (though I'm still not quite sure whether it's deeply homophobic or more kind of well-intentioned, but missing the mark - I'd have to read it again to even get an idea ...). But in terms of imagery, it left an enormous impression with me. and I'd love to see a movie.
The two books after that I barely remember, though.

I'm not too familiar with the stories, but isn't Duncan Idaho some kind of clone? If he's "reborn" after dying then it would make sense for Momoa to return, but I agree, he's over used.

Yes, the Duncan clones are actually pretty much the most prominent character(s) of the whole series (occasionally to a bleakly-ironic effect, as in God-Emperor: "Oh, crushed the last Duncan, I guess I'll have to order a new one ...").
