The following is a list of secondary fictional characters from the Dune franchise created by Frank Herbert.
Leto I Atreides (/ˈleɪtoʊ əˈtreɪdiːz/) is the Duke of House Atreides, and father to Paul Atreides. He is introduced in the 1965 novel Dune, and is later the main character in the Prelude to Dune prequel trilogy (1999–2001) by Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson.
Leto is portrayed by Jürgen Prochnow in David Lynch's 1984 film Dune, and by William Hurt in the 2000 Dune miniseries. Hurt was the first to be cast in the 2000 adaptation. A fan of the novel, he told The New York Times, "I was a science fiction junkie ... [Director John Harrison] captured Herbert's prophetic reflection of our own age, where nation-states are competing with the new global economy and its corporate elements."
