Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
The original 1988 film's sandworm was only 15 seconds of screen time; this sequel gives them a full action sequence and marital symbolism.
Jenna Ortega's casting as Lydia's daughter completes a full circle: Winona Ryder was the original 'it girl' for weirdos, now passing the fishnet torch to Wednesday's new scream queen.
