Naw, it won’t be confusing for a number of reasons.

For one, I always picture characters how they are described in the books, and not in the movies. For another, if they decide to continue the series past the first few novels, they are going to be entering another part of the Dune timeline, currently unexplored by film. For a third reason, most of the actors from the first two film adaptations were terrible. XP

Now then, the main reason that they are using different actors is because each film adaptation is made by a different company. The 1984 movie was made by David Lynch, and the 2000 mini series was made by Artisans, and the upcoming movie will be made by Paramount. I’m estimating a summer of 2009 release.

As a side note, one thing that the 1984 David Lynch movie had that none of the other versions could, or will be able to possibly beat, is Sting's role as Feyd-Rautha. He played it so psychotic and accurate. XD
