“Desert Chant,” the first single from “ Dune: Part Three ” has been released.

The single begins with Timothée Chalamet humming before ascending into the war chant. The track is written by composer Hans Zimmer , who also scored the previous films.

“Dune: Part Three” sees Chalamet return as Paul Atreides, continuing the story after his ascent to power at the end of “Part Two.” Inspired by Frank Herbert’s novel “Dune Messiah,” the action takes place 17 years after the events of the previous film and explores the consequences of Paul’s rule as emperor. And things are getting…dark. Really, really dark. As lovers of the first film know, Paul is blessed with visions of the future, but his mind has grown clouded since assuming control of the galaxy.
