How to watch Dune: Part Two at home: Where is it streaming?

UPDATE: Jan. 10, 2025, 2:15 p.m. EST This article has been updated to include Netflix streaming information and the latest pricing details for “Dune: Part Two.”

A “deeply weird and wonderful” film experience, as Mashable’s Belen Edwards describes it, Dune has become quite the pop culture phenomenon. Dune: Part Two dominated the box office in 2024 with over $710 million globally — surpassing the entire run of Dune: Part One and beating out Wicked in the overall charts.

Like Part One, the newest addition to the Duniverse has been showered with praise from both critics and audiences alike. The Denis Villeneuve-directed film “swings bigger and often hits harder, soaring beyond even the epic highs of its predecessor,” Edwards writes in her review. It earned Golden Globe and SAG Award nods, and of course, there are talks of it being a Best Picture contender at the Oscars. It also cracked the top 10 in our best films of the year list.

The already epic cast from the original, including Timothée Chalamet, Zendaya, Rebecca Ferguson, Javier Bardem, Josh Brolin, and Stellan Skarsgård adds Austin Butler, Florence Pugh, Christopher Walken, and Léa Seydoux.

Get a glimpse at the second Dune installment in the official trailer:

Whether you missed it in theaters or want to revisit Arrakis from home, the film is now streaming on not one, but two different services. Here’s everything you need to know.

What is Dune: Part Two about?

Picking up right where Part One left off, Dune: Part Two continues the quest of Paul Atreides (Timothée Chalamet) as he unites with Arrakis’ indigenous Fremen people in hopes of saving the planet from the vicious Harkonnen empire. It’s based on the second half of Frank Herbert’s 1965 novel. To make things more complicated for Paul, there’s a prophecy among the Fremen people that he’s the messiah — the Lisan al-Gaib, or “Voice From the Outer World” — that will lead them to freedom. Oh, and there’s new sandworms.

Need a recap of what Dune is all about? Here’s a detailed explainer to help you out.

Villeneuve’s second installment of the sci-fi franchise officially started streaming on Max on May 21, 2024, just shy of three months out from its theatrical debut. Fortunately, Dune: Part One is also streaming on Max, so you can make it a double feature.

As of January 2025, Dune: Part Two is now available to stream on Netflix as well. Netflix subscriptions start at just $6.99 per month, while Max subscriptions start at $9.99 per month. Currently, neither streaming service offers a free trial, but there are a few streaming deals available to watch for free or at least at a discount. We’ve broken down the best Max deals and best Netflix deals below to help you save.

Best Max streaming deals

Best Max streaming deal for most people: Save 17% on Max with ads annual subscription

Max subscriptions start at $9.99 per month with ads. You can easily sign up for a month, watch Dune (Part One and Part Two), then cancel before you’re charged for another month. However, if you’re in it for the long haul, we’d recommend the yearly subscription instead. An annual plan with ads goes for $99.99 per year, which breaks down to just $8.33 per month instead of $9.99. That’s 17% (or $1.66) per month in savings.

Best Max deal with no ads: Save 22% on a Max Ad-Free annual subscription

If you prefer not to have ads interrupting your viewing experience, you have the Max Ad-Free and Max Ultimate tiers to choose from. The Ad-Free tier costs $15.99 per month, while the Ultimate tier costs $19.99 per month. If you opt for the yearly plan instead, though, it’ll only cost you $149.99 per year (which breaks down to $12.49 per month) or $199.99 per year (which breaks down to $16.67 per month). That’s a total savings of 22% on the Ad-Free yearly plan or 17% on the Ultimate plan.

Note: the Ultimate plan offers not only an ad-free viewing experience, but also 4K Ultra HD video quality and Dolby Atmos immersive audio.

Best Max deal for Cricket customers: Free Max with ads for customers on the $60/month unlimited plan

Cricket Wireless customers on the $60 per month unlimited plan get Max with ads for free as long as their account remains in good standing. Just head over to the Max app or navigate to Max on a browser, choose Cricket as your provider, and use your Cricket credentials to log in. Then you’ll be able to watch Dune: Part One and Dune: Part Two for no extra cost. Cricket Wireless customers on different plans can change or upgrade in order to secure the deal. Check out the terms and conditions on Cricket’s website to learn more.

Best Max deal for students: Save 50% on Max with ads monthly for one year

If you’re a college student, a new Max deal allows you to score 50% off an ad-supported monthly subscription for 12 months. That drops the price down from $9.99 per month to just $4.99 per month. You’ll just have to verify your student status with UNiDAYS, which will give you a unique discount code. Then head back over to Max and redeem your code to stream for half price.

Best Netflix streaming deals

Best Netflix deal for Verizon Wireless or Home Internet customers: Save $6.98/month through Verizon myPlan

Verizon customers with myPlan can add the Netflix and Max bundle to their accounts for just $10 per month (reg. $16.98 per month). Additionally, Verizon Home Internet customers can sign up for the same bundle through their myHome plan. That essentially makes Netflix with ads free, as a Max subscription alone is $9.99 per month. You’ll need an Unlimited Welcome, Unlimited Plus, or Unlimited Ultimate plan to be eligible (learn more on the Verizon support page). Once you enroll in the promotion, you’ll have to head over to Netflix and Max separately to set up your accounts.

Best Netflix deal for T-Mobile customers: Get Netflix Standard for free with select plans

If ever there was a reason to switch mobile providers to T-Mobile, it’s their comprehensive streaming lineup. Not only do select customers get Netflix Standard with ads for free, (reg. $6.99 per month), but also Hulu with ads and Apple TV+. Here are the details:

You need to have two or more lines of any type of Go5G or Magenta plan or at least one line of Go5G Next, Go5G Plus, or Magenta MAX to secure Netflix with ads for free. You’ll have to manually activate your subscription by logging into My T-Mobile and selecting “Manage add-ons”. Once there, click on “add Netflix” in the Services section and you’ll be prompted to either create a new Netflix account or sign in to your existing one. From then on, T-Mobile will be in charge of paying Netflix for you. Just note that if you already have a Netflix account, it may take a few billing cycles to transfer your bill over to T-Mobile. Learn more about the terms and FAQs on the promo page.
