More details about Dune: Prophecy – Season 1 and where you can watch

One of the most interesting aspects of Dune: Prophecy is its enormous distance from the events of the original Dune story. The series takes place roughly 10,000 years before Paul Atreides, allowing it to explore a civilization that is radically different from the one seen in Denis Villeneuve’s films. Instead of focusing on Paul or the Atreides family’s rise, the series examines the early development of the Sisterhood that eventually becomes the Bene Gesserit. The story also gives House Harkonnen a much earlier historical role, making Valya and Tula central figures in understanding the family’s complicated legacy.
