You should be set to jump right in to the new prequel seriesDune: Prophecy, right?
In short,Duneis complicated and confusing property.
Prophecyovercomes any prejudices viewers might have by castingEmily Watsonas Valya.
But will that be enough to make people see Valya as a hero?
Like Watson, Olivia Williams has a long and impressive career in film, television, and theaters.
That experience will serve Williams well while portraying Tula, as will her historical research.
Weakness isnt often a word associated with Mark Strong, and not just because of his surname.
There, she appeared on the 2011 crime seriesThe Bridgeand in the historical series1864.
Those questions fall away the first time viewers meet her mother Empress Natalya, played by Jodhi May.
Natalya has not true love for Javicco, but rather married him as part of a political alliance.
Lately, May has played royal figures in the seriesThe Warrior Queen of JhansiandThe Witcher.
Travis Fimmel as Desmond Hart
Everyone inDune: Prophecyhas a secret a long term goal.
But Desmond Hart seems to want only chaos.
The Australian actor also appeared in theWarcraftmovie as human hero Anduin Lothar.
Chris Mason as Keiran Atreides
Of course, noDunestory would be complete without an Atreides.
They are just as dangerous as everyone else, as represented by Keiran Atreides.
A sword master, Keiran comes into Javiccos service ready to train soldiers for more traditional fights.
But hes forced to understand a different jot down of power as Valya and the Sisterhood make their moves.
Den of Geekreaders most recently saw Chris Mason playing John Lennon in an episode ofDoctor Who.
Before that, Mason had parts inRiverdaleandBroadchurch.
One of the more notable objections comes from Sister Francesca, who advises a more slow and subtle course.
Hindi acting great Tabu plays Francesca, adding a bit of international prestige toDune: Prophecy.
