With Dune 3 already on the 2026 movie release calendar for a December premiere, filmmaker Denis Villeneuve and the cast are getting started on filming the exciting sequel. Jason Momoa is among the returning cast, and he just filmed himself shaving his iconic beard to get ready to play Duncan Idaho again. Spoiler alert: he prefers facial hair.

Jason Momoa, who is returning to the franchise as Duncan Idahoe for the third movie, took to Instagram to share a video of himself shaving his face. Evidently, this marks the first time he's shaven in six years. "Goddamnit, I hate it!," he said after looking at his newly shaven face.
