Dune: Prophecy Season 2 Filming Starts This August – What to Expect!

by

In the same cosmos as Denis Villeneuve’s award-winning movie saga, “Dune: Prophecy” is a prequel TV show that premiered on HBO and Max last year, receiving mostly favorable feedback. The network swiftly renewed this grand action series for Season 2 even before the finale, hinting at an imminent start for filming. This series delves into the history of the Bene Gesserit, a powerful entity with sociopolitical and religious influence extending across the galaxy, set 10,000 years prior to the movie series events.

Josh Heuston, star of “Dune: Prophecy”, shared in an interview with Collider that filming for Season 2 will start in August and go on until the end of this year. As of now, there’s no specific release date announced, but it’s likely we’ll see the show back on HBO and Max around 2026. Notably, the first season was broadcast a year later after wrapping up production towards the end of 2023. Moreover, Heuston has confirmed he will reprise his character in Season 2.

Absolutely! In Season 2, we return around August, and then we continue filming until the end of the year.

Title “Dune: Prophecy” might not be as cherished as the movie series, but it garnered a favorable 70% rating from critics on Rotten Tomatoes. The climactic finale of Season 1 demonstrated that there’s enough content to maintain a multi-season storyline. Despite being a prequel in the same cinematic universe, it’s far enough apart in time to function as a standalone production. This independence allows for unexpected twists and turns without being bound by the rules established by the “Dune” films. Nevertheless, “Prophecy” lives up to its title, enriching the expansive mythology of the franchise by offering context for one of the most critical puzzle pieces in “Dune”.
