The strikes have hit hard at the illustrious event as there will be a limited schedule for films and TV series given that several studios have decided to sit these panels out.
It is pertinent to mention that its predecessor ‘Dune‘ or ‘Dune: Part One‘ was one of the most successful films of 2021. It had an estimated earning of $165 million to produce, also did well overseas and has taken in almost $225 globally at the box office.
