Dune: Prophecy is set just over 10,000 years before the birth of Paul Atreides, serving as a prequel to the Denis Villeneuve-directed Dune movies. The sci-fi drama explores the genesis of the powerful sisterhood that becomes known as the Bene Gesserit, and stars Emily Watson, Olivia Williams and Mark Strong.
The series draws on source material from the 2012 novel Sisterhood of Dune by Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson, and Frank Herbert’s 1965 novel Dune, the origin of the Dune universe.
