Can’t get enough Dune? Then you’ll want to mark your calendar for the upcoming streaming series prequel, Dune: Prophecy. A prequel to 2021’s Dune, the story is centered on the origins of the Bene Gesserit. But when can you expect to watch the show on Max for yourself?
While Dune: Prophecy is a spin-off of Denis Villeneuve’s big-screen Dune adaptations, it is set 10,000 years before the events of those movies. The series centers sisters Valya (Emily Watson) and Tula Harkonnen (Olivia Williams), who are responsible for establishing the Bene Gesserit. This fabled sisterhood is known for undergoing intense training so as to acquire superhuman abilities.
The series was ordered in 2019, and principle photography took place in Hungary and Jordan. Originally titled Dune: Sisterhood, the series is based on the original 1965 Dune novel by Frank Herbert and the 2012 prequel novel, Sisterhood of Dune by Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson.
The first episode of Dune: Prophecy, “The Hidden Hand,” is scheduled to debut on Max on November 15, 2024. But if you can’t wait to get as much intel on the streaming series as possible, you should be aware that the show will be represented with an activation and a panel at New York Comic Con 2024. Will you be streaming Dune: Prophecy when it arrives on Max this autumn?
