In case you missed it, the finale of Dune Prophecy aired last night and it was truly a game-changer. Fans have been raving about the episode, comparing it to the shocking twists and turns of Game of Thrones. And with good reason - the final episode was an absolute bloodbath.
Starring an all-star cast including Emily Watson, Olivia Williams, Mark Strong, Tabu, and Travis Fimmel, the series premiered earlier this year on HBO Max in the US and Sky Atlantic and Now in the UK. Set 10,000 years before the events of Denis Villeneuve's Dune movies, the show follows two Harkonnen sisters as they fight against powerful forces that threaten the future of humanity. Along the way, they establish the legendary group known as the Bene Gesserit.
But it seems that not everyone made it out alive in the first season. The finale left viewers stunned as beloved characters met their untimely fates. Emperor Javicco Corrino met his demise in a devastating scene, while his mistress, Sister Francesca, was killed by Empress Natalya. This leaves us wondering what the future has in store for the upcoming second season.
Fans couldn't get enough of the explosive finale and took to Twitter to share their thoughts and theories. Virgo Blade exclaimed, "These girls are wild! What a bloodbath!" while Crissyg91 gave the episode a perfect score, saying, "That finale was absolutely insane! 10/10 recommend." Leo even declared that "monarchy drama is officially back" thanks to Dune Prophecy.
Some viewers couldn't resist making comparisons to Game of Thrones, with Isaac__88 stating that Dune Prophecy is "basically Game of Thrones in space." And it seems that the show's success lies in its well-written script and talented actors. Diego praised, "Dune Prophecy is proof that a good script and great actors can elevate a production. I hope other shows will take note and focus more on the story and acting like Dune Prophecy." Christine Galea simply summed it up with, "That finale was insane!"
As for what's to come in the second season, showrunner Alison Schapker has confirmed that Emperor Javicco will not be making a surprise return. "We love him and we're very sad about it," she said in a press conference. "Mark Strong was a joy to work with, both as an actor and a human being. His portrayal of the Emperor was brilliant, and it was a pleasure to watch his character's journey. But unfortunately, he is indeed dead." However, this leaves a power vacuum that could be filled by Emily's character Reverend Mother Valya Harkonnen. We'll just have to wait and see.
All in all, Dune Prophecy has left fans eager for more, and rightly so. The show is currently available to stream on HBO Max and Sky Atlantic, and we can't wait to see what twists and turns will come our way in the second season.
