Emily Watson, Olivia Williams' Ambitious Prequel Sci-Fi Series On Control, Power Feels Familiar
The sci-fi drama, which is spun off the wildly successful Dune film franchise, set the stage for a well-known clash of power.
The prequel series, Dune: Prophecy, opens with an interesting quote that lays the foundation for its narrative ahead. It states, “Victory is celebrated in the light, but won in the darkness.” The HBO show is set around 10,000 years before the existence of Timothee Chalamet’s Paul Atreides from Dune; a powerful organisation called the Sisterhood aims to guide humanity to its correct path. Easier said than done.
