Here's Entertainment Weekly with an excellent article on the Dune: Prophecy prequel TV series being developed by HBO. It features several exclusive set photos, comments from the two leads Emily Watson and Olivia Williams, as well as plenty of insight about the background to the series.

Frank Herbert fans will know that the man himself wrote several (increasingly wild) sequels to his first Dune novel, but may not know that his son Brian Herbert collaborated with US sci-fi writer Kevin J. Anderson on over two dozen prequel novels fleshing out the universe's history. Sisterhood of Dune is the starting point for Dune: Prophecy, which is set 10,000 years before Dune, and in which Watson and Williams play the Harkonnen sisters who help to found the Bene Gesserit.
