After several tumultuous years in development, Dune: Prophecy is officially coming out in exactly one month. HBO announced during New York Comic Con today that the show would premiere on November 17, 2024 at 9:00 p.m. ET/PT on HBO and will also be available then to stream on Max.
To further celebrate the occasion, we also got a new trailer for the six-episode prequel series, which takes place roughly 10,000 years before Paul Atreides was born and is based on the novel Sisterhood of Dune, written by Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson.
Unlike the first trailer, which tees up the goals of the sisters, this one gives us more of the forces working against the burgeoning Bene Gesserit, specifically Mark Strong’s Emperor Javicco Corrino and Travis Fimmel’s Desmond Hart. Both want to see the sisterhood destroyed, with Hart in particular appearing to have some special power to do so.
The clip also features many others in the stacked cast, which includes Emily Watson and Olivia Williams as the founding sisters of the Bene Gesserit, as well as Jodhi May, 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. Alison Schapker is the showrunner of the series, with Diane Ademu-John co-developing it.
Dune: Prophecy is set to premiere on HBO and Max on November 17, 2024, with new episodes dropping every Sunday.
