Why Paul Killed His Friend From His Visions At The End

Paul Atreides has visions of Jamis as a friend, so why does he kill him at the end of Dune? The adaptation of Frank Herbert's 1965 novel was met with wide critical praise upon release last year. The story follows Paul Atreides (Timothée Chalamet) and his developing powers of prescience which ascend him to messianic status. In the film, Paul gains the ability to see the future after prolonged exposure to the valuable drug native to Arrakis, Spice Melange. In his visions, Paul sees terrifying scenes of himself as a messianic figure to the Fremen, the indigenous people of Arrakis. His vision show him leading a jihad that commits genocide on a galactic scale, and witnesses the death of beloved friends such as Duncan Idaho (Jason Momoa).
