Some of the biggest movies in the roaster right now, apart from the Christopher Nolan secret project, are undoubtedly Mat Reeves’ Batman movie and the science fiction extravaganza that is once again going to unite the dynamic duo of Zendaya and Timothée Chalamet. As if the upcoming slate was not looking exciting enough for moviegoers, the two movies are set to share a vital connection.
Despite being worlds apart in terms of the target object, Dune: Part Three
and The Batman Part II
do have an overlapping audience that is mostly known for appreciating good cinema regardless of genre. Perhaps it is this audience that the stars have aligned for, as Greig Fraser is set to be the cinematographer for both Dune: Part Three
and The Batman Part II.
Greig Fraser will likely be available to be the cinematographer for both ‘THE BATMAN 2’ and ‘DUNE 3’
