Prophecy Season 2? Here’s the really good news

Sixth and final episode of Dune: Prophecy Season 1 airs tonight on HBO and Max. As you watch the finale, you might wonder if Dune prequel series returns for a second season – and how long will the wait be for the next chapter in the Dune franchise.

Episode 6 promises an action-packed conclusion to the first season of the prequel series, inspired by Frank Herbert’s Sisterhood of Dune. Created by the iconic writer, the show has centered on the clash between the Sisterhood, led by Valya Harkonnen, and Desmond Hart, a mysterious soldier from the Empire. In episode 5, a shocking twist revealed that Desmond may be the abandoned son of Valya’s sister, Tula – making him half Harkonnen and half Atreides.

The official teaser before Dune: Prophecy The Season 1 finale hints at an intense showdown as Valya prepares for a final battle against Hart to restore the Sisterhood’s power in the Empire. However, an internal rift within the Sisterhood could undermine Mother Superior’s efforts, as Lila can be heard saying in the trailer, “Sisterhood has lost its way.”
