The 2021 Dune film, which didn’t deliver big numbers at the box office due to its day-and-date streaming release, was recently added to Netflix’s streaming lineup in the United States. The film was a big spike in popularity when it was first added to the service, and it has found itself peaking once again on the eve of its successor’s debut.

Tuesday’s Netflix Top 10 Movies list shows Dune again climbing the streamer’s film rankings, reaching the sixth overall spot on the list. With Dune: Part Two on the horizon, Dune may be able to achieve an even higher position on the Netflix charts in the coming days.
