After the success of the previous two movies, fans are now gearing up for the series, Dune Prophecy, and the first trailer for Dune Prophecy has been officially released by HBO Max through their YouTube channel.
The official logline reads:
“Set in the vast universe of ‘Dune ‘ by acclaimed author Frank Herbert, and 10,000 years before Paul Atreides rose to power, ‘Dune: Prophecy’ chronicles the journey of two Harkonnen sisters who struggle against forces that threaten the future of humanity, while establishing a legendary sect that will one day be known as the Bene Gesserit. ‘Dune: Prophecy’ is inspired by the novel ‘Sisterhood of Dune’ by Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson.”
1. Dune Prophecy Trailer
The trailer itself seems to give a hint that the Dune Prophecy series seeks to present an origin story that takes place before the film Dune by director Denis Villeneuve. However, on the other hand, the series also seeks to present a unique story identity by introducing the historical background of Bene Gesserit.
We will witness the setting 10,000 years before the events in the movie “Dune” and tell the story of the origins of the Bene Gesserit. The Bene Gesserit is a secret order of powerful wizards who secretly influence the politics of this sci-fi world.
In addition, we will also explore the past background of the House of Harkonnen and Atreides. The official trailer of Dune Prophecy shows the condition of the planet Arakkis and the sandworm, Shai-Hulud, 10,000 years before Paul Atredies appeared. Apart from Arakkis, the movie will also show various other planets in the Dune story.
Valya Harkonnen formed the Bene Gesserit, while Emperor Corrino maneuvered politically to maintain his control over the Empire. Valya and the members of the Bene Gesserit listened to the Voice and also used this ability to control others.
