The phenomenon series Dune Prophecy, produced by HBO and airing on Max, is still to be revealed. The entire team raises the bar ahead of the final film in the trilogy.
It’s definitely confirmed, Dune 3 is currently being intensively written and unless something changes, Denis Villeneuve will be devoting the next few months or even years of his career to it. The desire to return to the world of Frank Herbert and the actors, including Timothée Chalamet and Zendaya, was too great. Normally, filming could begin at the end of 2025 or in the first quarter of 2026. The SVOD Max service will also soon take over the SF phenomenon.
A big, exciting trailer for the HBO series Dune Prophecy
The Dune universe will return November 18, 2024 on the Max platform with the Prophecy series. A prequel that, unsurprisingly, was produced by HBO, the American broadcaster with countless successes, and will last a total of 6 episodes. We don’t know how long it will take, but knowing the house, it should take at least about an hour. As with Denis Villeneuve’s films, the Dune Prophecy series will be an adaptation of a novel, The community of sisters by Brian Herbert. The son of the creator of this monument to literary science fiction, who teamed up with Kevin J. Anderson for the book. An author who has written various novels related to Dune, but also Star Wars and The X-Files.
« Set 10,000 years before the ascension of Paul Atreides, Dune Prophecy traces the origins of the mysterious religious organization Bene Gesserit through the story of two Harkonnen sisters who must fight against the forces of evil that threaten the future of humanity ».
The Bene Gesserit organization is the one that Rebecca Ferguson (Mission Impossible 7) belongs to in Denis Villeneuve’s films. Despite the fact that it is a television production, the resources seem to be there to put on a great show. After Jonathan Nolan’s Westworld, available on Max, will Dune Prophecy be the next series to keep a close eye on? Verdict next month with new releases for November 2024, but until then, here’s the epic new preview of this series of events.
