• Dune: The Sisterhood is now in production and will be broadcast on HBO Max
• Princess Ynez will be played by Sarah-Sofie Boussnina.
• Chloe Lea will play Lila, the youngest acolyte of the Sisterhood.

Dune: The Sisterhood is joined by five more actors, which is now in production and will be broadcast on HBO Max by Legendary Television, according to a report from Deadline.

The newly added cast members join previously revealed actors Indira Varma, Shirley Henderson, Emily Watson, and Chernobyl’s Emily Watson in the series (Obi-Wan Kenobi).

Princess Ynez, the heir to the Golden Lion Throne, will be played by Sarah-Sofie Boussnina, who made an appearance in The Colony.

According to reports, the protagonist would be a young, independent princess who must shoulder responsibility.

The series will also feature Shalom Brune-Franklin (The Tourist) as Mikaela, a Fremen character who works for the royal family while longing for her home planet.

Sister Jen, an emotionally distant acolyte in training at the Sisterhood School, will be portrayed by Faoileann Cunningham (The Northman), and Sister Emeline, another acolyte descended from a line of martyrs, will be portrayed by Aoife Hinds (Normal People). Chloe Lea, who previously starred in Foundation, will play Lila, the Sisterhood’s youngest acolyte, who is incredibly sympathetic.

According to reports, the television series, which is based on the novel Sisterhood of Dune by Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson, would follow the Harkonnen Sisters as they establish the Bene Gesserit order and battle forces who pose a threat to humanity’s future 10,000 years in the past.

Dune: The Sisterhood is building up to be an interesting series for fans to look out for when it premieres in the future with a growing roster of outstanding performers joining the long-gestating production based on author Frank Herbert’s legendary universe.

As production gets underway next month, further details about the series will probably become available.

With the 2021 release of Dune, the most recent rendition of the classic world got underway to positive reviews, 10 Academy Award nominations, and six wins.

Fans are eagerly awaiting the premiere of the highly anticipated series, but in the meantime, work is already started on Dune: Part Two, which will hit theatres on November 3, 2023.

With a follow-up movie and a TV show about the Bene Gesserit in the works, it seems like the Dune universe is finally growing and has a bright future.

Together with Alison Schapker, the show’s creator Diane Ademu-John acts as showrunner. Along with Denis Villeneuve, who directed the franchise’s first movie and its now in production sequel, they will also also executive produce the TV show.

Along with Herbert, Byron Merritt, and Kim Herbert, the show’s executive producers are Jon Spaihts, Scott Z. Burns, Matthew King, John Cameron, and Cait Collins.
