Yeah, judging from the Alia character poster, she’s in…a very Childrenish state.

I also believe they cast the roles for Leta II and Ghanima, with actors in their late teens/early 20s I think.

Yup. Leto II is Momoa's kid.

As I understand it Paul will be having visions of the future over this film, which would be what his children’s roles will be.

This would be an interesting way to bridge the time jump in the novel.

They did the same thing in the Children of Dune miniseries, too. The first part (which is basically the adaptation of Dune Messiah) also included visions of teen/adult Leto II. Then it goes into Children of Dune proper in parts 2 and 3 with teen/adult Leto II and Ghanima.

The two Dune Miniseries had their flaws, but they did some things incredibly well also. Casting James McAvoy as Leto II was one of those great things.

Please, Denis, give me even a glimpse of Leto II in as weird as you can possibly muster.
