Dune: Prophecy Returns for Season 2 — A Must-Watch Hard Sci‑Fi

Season 2 of Dune: Prophecy is in the middle of production and has added Indira Varma, Tom Hollander, and Ashley Walters to its expanding cast, making now a good moment to catch up while you wait for Dune: Part Three to hit theaters this winter. Star Josh Heuston has hinted the new season will be larger in scale, with grander fights and broader storylines.

The series is set several millennia before Dune and Dune: Part Two, within the world of Denis Villeneuve's films adapted from Frank Herbert's novels. A prequel series of books (Sisterhood of Dune, Mentats of Dune, and Navigators of Dune) co-written by Brian Herbert and Kevin J.

Anderson is referenced on the show, though Prophecy takes place slightly after the events of those novels. Female characters are central to the series.
