Dune Remake

There is an article in Variety about Peter Berg (Hancock) directing a Hercules movie based on the comic Hercules: The Thracian Wars by Steve Moore.

Tucked away at the bottom of the article is this little gem:

Berg is also set to direct and produce a new version of the Frank Herbert sci-fi novel "Dune" for Paramount Pictures.

I'm a big fan of Dune. Loved David Lynch's movie and I spent a pleasant afternoon watching the mini-series with Chisholm back in the day so I'm going to be following this story closely. Any more Dune fans out there?
