Reading Time: 2 minutes

Max has released an official trailer for Dune: Prophecy, an upcoming series that is connected to Denis Villeneuve’s Dune movies. Let’s take a look.

Inspired by the novel Sisterhood of Dune, written by Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson, Dune: Prophecy stars Emily Watson, Olivia Williams, Travis Fimmel, Jodhi May, Mark Strong, Sarah-Sofie Boussnina, Josh Heuston, Chloe Lea, Jade Anouka, Faoileann Cunningham, Edward Davis, Aoife Hinds, Chris Mason, Shalom Brune-Franklin, Jihae, Tabu, Charithra Chandran, Jessica Barden, Emma Canning, and Yerin Ha.

Although connected to Villeneuve’s Dune franchise, the acclaimed filmmaker reportedly had zero involvement with Prophecy, as revealed by executive producer Jordan Goldberg during a recent interview with Screen Rant.

“Well, Denis’ got his own franchise that he’s working on right now and he’s been busy doing that and his own projects,” Goldberg shared. “He’s really left to us to figure out how to platform the new characters and the new worlds, which is exciting about the story that we’re telling because we are outside of Arrakis and so we get to visit new places.”

The Dune: Prophecy EP continued, “But he is aspirational in what he did there for us to achieve that kind of large scale immersive experience. We had a tremendous cast and a tremendous crew and we went all in and put it on the screen and it shows.”

Plot Synopsis:

From the expansive universe of Dune, created by acclaimed author Frank Herbert, and 10,000 years before the ascension of Paul Atreides, Dune: Prophecy follows two Harkonnen sisters as they combat forces that threaten the future of humankind, and establish the fabled sect that will become known as the Bene Gesserit.

Dune: Prophecy premieres on HBO and Max on November 17, 2024.
