A new Dune: Prophecy poster is out, previewing the upcoming HBO original series starring Emily Watson based on the Dune film series from Denis Villeneuve.
The new poster shows Emily Watson’s Valkya Harkonnen, the leader of the Sisterhood, amongst a group of other Sisters. The poster also teases that “power lies in the shadows,” a tenet of the group that often pulls the strings of various larger powers from behind the scenes in the Dune world.
