In the first film, Duncan Idaho valiantly fought to protect Paul and his mother from the Sardaukar forces, ultimately sacrificing himself in the process. However, in Frank Herbert’s Dune novels, Duncan’s story doesn’t end there. He returns as a ghola, a clone with the memories of his past life intact, in the subsequent book, Dune Messiah. This resurrection offers a compelling narrative avenue for Duncan’s character to rejoin the franchise.
