Dune Prophecy Cast and Characters

After the raging success of Dune and Dune Part 2, a lot of people including myself, have been waiting eagerly for the release of Dune 3 or Dune: Messiah however, even though we know that this movie will come out there are not a lot of updates regarding it. So, to make sure that the hype for Dune does not die down, a new series called Dune: Prophecy, set 10,000 years before Paul Atriedes was born is set to be released this November. If you are excited to delve into the universe of Delve, here is a list of the Dune Prophecy cast and characters we’ll see in the TV show.

1. Emily Watson as Valya Harkonnen

Dune Prophecy is filled with a stellar cast and one among them is Emily Watson. She is going to take up the role of Mother Superior Valya Harkonnen. She is the second Reverand Mother Superior of the Bene Gesserit Order. She is ruthless when it comes to her ambitions and wishes to put a sister on the Imperium’s throne. Valya is willing to do whatever it takes to make it happen.

2. Olivia Williams as Tula Harkonnen

Olivia Williams is set to appear in Dune: Prophecy as the sister of Mother Superior Valya Harkonnen and one of the earliest members of the Bene Gesserit Order. She is extremely loyal to her sister and is willing to carry out the worst of orders she is given if it benefits the House Harkonnen. Not much about her character and her deeds are known to us at the moment but by this description, we can assume it is going to be pretty intense.

3. Jodhi May as Empress Natalya

Jodhi May appears in the role of Empress Natalya who married Emperor Javicco Corrino, thus uniting thousands of worlds. In the trailer, it seems that she is the only one who sees that the Bene Gesserit is trying to gain control over everything but her hunches are taken lightly. Initially, Indira Verma was supposed to play this character but she backed out and now Jodhi May has replaced her.

4. Sarah-Sofie Boussnina as Princess Ynez

Not much information is available regarding Princess Ynez played by Sarah-Sofie Boussnina in Dune Prophecy. All we know so far is that she is an independent royal who is burdened with expectations and has a lot of pressure on her since she is the heir to the Golden Lion Throne.

5. Shalom Brune-Franklin as Mikaela

For Dune: Prophecy, Shalom Brune-Franklin has joined the cast as Mikaela. She will be seen as one of the people in the service of the royal family. She is described as having a strong will and her ultimate goal in life is to return to her home planet, even though she has never been there and does not remember anything about it.

6. Aoife Hinds as Sister Emeline

Aoife Hinds will be seen in the role of Sister Emeline. She is one of the acolytes who comes from a long line of martyrs and is strongly devoted to her duty. Most probably she is going to be a secondary character in Dune Prophecy but nothing can be said with certainty at this point.

7. Faoileann Cunningham as Sister Jen

Another acolyte at the Sisterhood school is Sister Jen played by Faoileann Cunningham. She is described to be easily angered and unpredictable and because of her emotional instability, she does not create any kind of emotional bonds with anyone. Just like Sister Emeline, not much information is available regarding her character in Dune Prophecy.

8. Travis Fimmel as Desmond Hart

One of the big names joining the cast of Dune Prophecy is Travis Fimmel. Famous for his role as Ragnar Lothbrok in Vikings, he will be taking on the role of Desmond Hart, a soldier who wishes to be favored by the empire and to ensure that he receives it, we will see him standing against the House Harkonnen and their Sisterhood.

9. Chloe Lea as Lila

Chloe Lea will appear in Dune: Prophecy as Lila, the youngest acolyte at the School of Sisterhood. Even though very young, her character is described to be very mature and holds a lot of compassion as compared to what you would expect to see from someone of her age.

10. Mark Strong as Emperor Javicco Corrino

One of the main characters of Dune: Prophecy, Emperor Javicco Corrino is played by Mark Strong. He will be seen trying his best to maintain peace during his reign after a long line of his lineage has been more war-oriented. House Harkonnen will be seen attempting to manipulate and take control of Emperor Javicco Corrino in the series.

11. Jade Anouka as Sister Theodosia

Jade Anouka will once again be a minor character named Sister Theodosia, another acolyte at the School of Sisterhood. She is described to be very ambitious however, there is a secret about her that is to be revealed in time as the series progresses.

12. Chris Mason as Keiran Atreides

Last but not least, Chris Mason will appear in the cast of Dune Prophecy as Keiran Atreides, one of the ancestors of Paul Atreides who is trying to live up to his legendary house name and in pursuit of greatness, he makes some friends with the royal family after which things start to turn bad for him.
