After over five years in development, the Max series Dune: Prophecy (fka Dune: The Sisterhood) is officially set to premiere later this year. Warner Bros. Discovery announced the news today, and also released a teaser trailer to commemorate the occasion.

Here’s the official logline for the series:

From the expansive universe of Dune, created by acclaimed author Frank Herbert, and 10,000 years before the ascension of Paul Atreides, Dune: Prophecy follows two Harkonnen sisters as they combat forces that threaten the future of humankind, and establish the fabled sect that will become known as the Bene Gesserit. Dune: Prophecy is inspired by the novel Sisterhood of Dune, written by Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson.

The trailer gives us an unsurprising inkling as to what sacrifices the sisterhood must make to gain and contain control over the Imperium. How the series conveys that story is still an open question, of course, especially since the show has had its rocky moments, with one of the directors, one of the co-showrunners, and one of the lead actors, Shirley Henderson, leaving the production.

Olivia Williams took over Henderson’s role, and she along with Emily Watson play the Harkonnen sisters who founded the Bene Gesserit. Other cast members include Travis Fimmel, Jodhi May, Mark Strong, Sarah-Sofie Boussnina, Josh Heuston, Chloe Lea, Jade Anouka, Faoileann Cunningham, Edward Davis, Aoife Hinds, Chris Mason, Shalom Brune-Franklin, Camilla Beeput, Jihae, Tabu, Charithra Chandran, Jessica Barden, Emma Canning, and Yerin Ha.

The six-episode season of Dune: Prophecy is set to premiere on HBO and stream on Max in November 2024.
