Dune Editor Joe Walker Reveals How Sci-Fi Epic Came Together & How He Works With Denis Villeneuve

Editor’s Note: Dune and Arrival spoilers are discussed in the interview. While 2021 featured some amazing movies that we’ll all be watching for many years to come, for me there was one film that stood above everything, and that was Denis Villeneuve’s Dune. While Villeneuve has shown his gift behind the camera on his previous films like Arrival, Sicario, and Blade Runner 2049 (just to name a few), what he did on Dune was astounding. Each time I’ve seen the film I’ve felt like I was transported to the other side of the galaxy, getting to witness Paul Atreides journey as a silent observer. I cannot recommend this film enough. With Dune arriving on 4K Blu-ray and DVD January 11th and currently available On Demand and digitally, I recently got to speak with editor Joe Walker about his incredible work. This is Walker’s fourth collaboration with Villeneuve, after working on Arrival, Sicario, and Blade Runner 2049. During the extended and wide-ranging interview, Walker shared numerous behind-the-
