Dune: Prophecy Has Just Begun
Dune: Prophecy is seeking conquest over the small screen while Denis Villeneuve's films conquer the big screen. Prophecy's first season premiered to 1.2 million viewers across the US but it still has to find a way to match its theatrical counterpart in terms of substance and scope. As great as the prequel is it is the lowest-rated installment in the current saga due to the extremely high bar set by both Villeneuve's films. Hope is far from lost, there is still a large audience hungry for more spice and there is nowhere to go but up.
"I am thrilled to be able to announce that HBO is picking us up for a season 2. We are so thrilled and so grateful there for their support, their partners at Legendary, and most of all, that we get to continue working with these extraordinary people in front of the camera and behind the camera, that we keep get to keep telling the story that we care so deeply about and get to continue building out our corner of the Dune universe." - Alison Schapker
