Leto II Atreides
Leto II Atreides () is a fictional character from the "Dune" universe created by Frank Herbert. Born at the end of "Dune Messiah" (1969), Leto is a central character in "Children of Dune" (1976) and is the title character of "God Emperor of Dune" (1981). The character is brought back as a ghola in the Brian Herbert/Kevin J. Anderson sequels which conclude the original series, "Hunters of Dune" (2006) and "Sandworms of Dune" (2007). Leto also appears as a child in the prequel "The Winds of Dune" (2009).

Leto is the son of Paul Atreides and his Fremen concubine Chani, and the twin brother of Ghanima. Leto is named for his paternal grandfather Duke Leto I Atreides, who is killed in the Harkonnen invasion of the desert planet Arrakis (Dune) during the events of "Dune" (1965). Leto II is the second child of Paul to bear that name, the first having been killed as an infant by the Emperor's Sardaukar in "Dune".

Leto is portrayed by James McAvoy in the 2003 miniseries "Frank Herbert's Children of Dune".
