Dune: Prophecy was recently renewed for a second season. Right ahead of the finale airing on Binge on a hot summer's Christmas Eve, eve.
Yes this movie spin-off that landed on HBO following getting upgraded from a HBO Max title earlier in the year.
Dune: Prophecy is set 10,000 years, before the events of Dune. Prophecy follows sisters Valya and Tula Harkonnen as they combat forces that threaten the future of humanity, and establish the fabled sect known as the Bene Gesserit.
Set in Frank Herbert's Dune universe, the series focuses on the origins of the Bene Gesserit, a powerful social, religious, and political force whose members possess superhuman powers and abilities after undergoing years of intense physical and mental conditioning.
Dune: Prophecy draws upon, but is set after, the Great Schools of Dune novel trilogy (2012–2016) by Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson.
The first run of six episodes commenced last month. With high production value and a packed HBO 2025 schedule, I don't expect this back till 2026 at the earliest.
HBO has three new series to launch in 2025, along with a number of returning series. New series include A Knight of the Seven Kingdoms, the second Game of Thrones spin-off, It: Welcome to Derry. You guessed it, an It spin-off and Task. A new Mark Ruffalo lead miniseries.
The White Lotus has also been announced to commence around Valentine's Day too.
OK, spoilers below about the finale The High-Handed Enemy. You have been warned!
