The fascinating Valya Harkonnen, played by the brilliant Emily Watson, stands as the series' Mother Superior, guiding the Sisterhood through intrigue and power plays. Alongside her sister, Tula (Olivia Williams), these characters are primed to take on the universe with grace and ferocity. As they navigate the treacherous waters of leadership and ambition, viewers will find themselves entwined in a story of sisterhood that packs a cosmic punch, proving that behind every great output is an even greater woman.

Dive deeper into the Dune narrative and prepare to meet the formidable characters. Audiences can look forward to intricate relationships and thrilling conflicts as the women of Dune grapple with political machinations and their own supernatural abilities. The stakes have never been higher, and with every episode poised to deliver mind-blowing drama, fans are sure to be glued to their screens!

So, mark your calendars for Sunday, November 17, to catch "Dune: Prophecy"! And don’t forget to prepare a viewing party, because as rich as the spice may be, nothing pairs better with the gripping action of Arrakis than a gathering of friends and some popcorn!

Fun Fact: Did you know that "Dune: Prophecy" is not just about the supernatural? The series dives into the deeper cultural representations of women’s strength as they fight against the odds, establishing their legacy in one of science fiction’s most beloved universes.

Another interesting tidbit: The series features not just Hollywood talent but Bollywood superstar Tabu, making her Hollywood debut. It’s a crossover we didn’t know we needed, blending different cinematic worlds into the epic saga of Dune!
