India TodayThe much-awaited series, Dune: Prophecy, series aired on JioCinema on Monday, December 23. Showrunner Alison Schapker explained the decision to include Tabu in the Dune: Prophecy series, stating, “Well, I just think the Imperium represents a global world. She is an incredible actor with charisma and depth, making her the perfect choice for this role.” “I think she's just incredibly charismatic and a wonderful actor who could come and, all of a sudden, be in scenes with Emily, and embrace the cast, Mark Strong and Josh Brolin, and you just love seeing her. Acting is about reflecting the complexity of people, and that’s what makes it fun and rewarding.” Here's the trailer: Set 10,000 years before Paul Atreides' rebellion, Dune: Prophecy delves into the origins of the Bene Gesserit, the Atreides-Harkonnen feud, and the human-machine war.
