May in general is significant for many of the Star_Wars movies.

"Star Wars Day is an informal commemorative day observed annually on May 4 to celebrate George Lucas' Star Wars media franchise. Observance of the day spread quickly through media and grassroots celebrations since the franchise began in 1977." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_Wars_Day
Some see May_25 as an important STAR WARS day as well. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Star_Wars_Trilogy#Films
Indeed, 6 of the first series of STAR+WARS movies were all released in May.

CGI if done correctly and wisely, can really enhance a production.
This tech could add much more depth to the Star+Wars universe in some interesting ways.

The tech has advanced well enough but only deepfake bootleg movies would be possible. That's because the owners of the various productions can't legally allow bootleg versions. However someday, if the owners provided their own deepfake productions, that would be quite something. https://www.denofgeek.com/tv/star-wars-deepfake-luke-skywalker-mandalorian

Of course the+desert is an integral part of both of these interplanetary epics.

It's just that with Dune the desert is more a part of the overall story than it is with STAR+WARS.
