HBO's upcoming Dune prequel series, Dune: Prophecy, is set 10,000 years before the events of the films. The show will revolve around the Sisterhood that grew in power over time to become the Bene Gesserit. But in the new trailer for the series, the Sisterhood's very existence is threatened by a man whose only desire is to wipe them all out.

Vikings star Travis Fimmel appears in this series as Desmond Hart, the interloper who is whispering in the ear of Emperor Javicco Corrino (Mark Strong) that the Sisterhood is expanding their influence and represents a threat to his empire.
