How to watch Dune online in Australia

When Denis Villeneuve's Dune first released in 2021, COVID had already eroded the cinema culture that was already hurting. This led to a bit of a trip down memory lane for Australians. Suddenly, we weren't getting every big blockbuster day and date as the rest of the world. Left wondering whether Dune would hit Hoyts or the highest-bidding streaming service first.

In the end, neither came for a long time and Australians who didn't want to miss the hype train were forced to dip their toes in pirate waters, or figure out how to use a bloody VPN in order to watch it via HBO Max (now Max.) Being the honest, salt-of-the-earth types that we Australians are, of course we signed up to NordVPN and paid for HBO Max just to watch Denis' Dune. You think we'd do Denis dirty and download Dune?

Four years later, both Dune and Dune: Part Two are available to stream in Australia, but both are on different streaming services. 

Dune (the first one) is currently available to stream on-demand via Stan. Stan plans start at $12 per month for Stan Basic, which offers Standard Definition (SD) streaming on one device.  Stan Standard will give you High-Definition (HD) 1080p streaming on three devices for $17 per month and Stan Premium will deliver 4K Ultra High Definition streaming on four devices for $22 per month. 

Not looking to sign up for another streaming service? No worries. Dune is available to rent or purchase in 4K through digital platforms for as low as $4.99.

Rent Dune digitally in 4K: $4.99
Purchase Dune digitally in 4K: $14.99

Dune: Part Two, on the other hand, is available to stream through Netflix, Binge or Foxtel Now. So you'll need to pay for two seperate services (or at least jump on a free trial) to stream both parts. Here's how much Netflix, Binge and Foxtel Now will cost you at a minimum.
