(Imagine a
Venn diagram. The first circle is labeled "Sci-fi Fans." The second is labeled "
Friday Night Lights Fans." In the center is this story.)
Peter Berg, who directed the film version of
FNL and exec-produces the series, will now direct an adaptation of Frank Herbert's classic sci-fi novel
Dune for the big screen, according to
Variety.
There have, of course, already been two adaptations of the book: David Lynch's 1984 film starring Kyle MacLachlan and a 2000 Sci Fi Channel miniseries starring William Hurt. How will Berg approach the novel's environmental themes differently? What do you think - is this a good idea? -
