Based on a book in the larger Dune canon – Sisterhood of Dune by Frank Herbert’s son Brian Herbert and his co-author Kevin J Anderson – the new series will largely revolve around the sisterhood’s leaders, Valya and Tula Harkonnen, who are being played by Emily Watson and Olivia Williams, respectively, as they battle forces that threaten the future of mankind.

While the series is pretty far removed from the films, Keiran Atreides actor Chris Mason recently revealed to RadioTimes.com that the show does include “nods” to Timothee Chalamet’s Paul Atreides. Elsewhere, Travis Fimmel has been breaking down his mysterious character, Desmond Hart.
