Sisterhood of Dunewas our seminal text that we were working with and drawing inspiration from, Schapker toldEW.
Okay, maybe that statement doesnt clarify as much as we thought.
In the first twoDunemovies, the Harkonnens are the clear villains.
But as anyone who has readlaterDunebooksknows, the franchise rarely deals in such simple morality.
She dreams of restoring what she feels is rightfully theirs.
Its not a girlhood coming-of-age narrative so much as a womans rise to power from a Harkonnen perspective.
And yet, Schapker insists thatDune: Prophecywont move in a straightforward manner.
In fact, the timelines will be mingled together.
For Schapker, genetic memory adds depth to the leads ofDune: Prophecy.
Some of them are actively communicating with their female ancestors at any given time.
Thanks to genetic memory,Dune: Prophecyisnt just a prequel.
Dune: Prophecy arrives to HBO and Max in November 2024.
