Originally commissioned in 2019 under the title ‘Dune: The Sisterhood’, the series draws inspiration from the novel ‘Sisterhood of Dune’ by Brian Herbert and Kevin J.Anderson. The story is set 10,000 years before the rise of Paul Atreides, focusing on two Harkonnen sisters who fight against forces threatening humanity’s future. These sisters go on to establish the Bene Gesserit, a powerful and influential group within the Dune universe.
The teaser gives a glimpse of the early days of the Bene Gesserit, showing their increasing influence across the Imperium.

But no Tabu. Gonna assume her role is either very important that they don’t want to show or it’s a small role 😩 Nonetheless with or without her, I was always excited for anything related to my latest favourite child and that’s DUNE.
