How to watch 'Dune: Prophecy' online from anywhere — stream TV series with Emily Watson, date, time

2 weeks ago 5

There are prequels and there are prequels. "Dune: Prophecy" reaches back 10,000 years before Paul Atreides to bring us the back story of the Harkonnen sisters taking on forces that threaten the future of humankind as they establish the Bene Gesserit. But don't worry, all the usual weirdness is still present and correct.

Here's how you can watch "Dune: Prophecy" online around the world and from anywhere with a VPN.

And by "usual weirdness" we mean mind-altering spices and terrifying giant worms - that kind of thing. More recognizable are the threats of ecological disaster and the political machinations that seem to come as standard with human weakness.

There's also a peculiar fondness for the principle of heredity that years of in-breeding and dictatorial incompetence seem to have done little to discourage although the new found sisterhood seem to think it might have a plan.

In fact, the working title of this new(ish) sci-fi franchise was 'Dune: The Sisterhood' and Emily Watson and Olivia Williams as the Harkonnen sisters are at the heart of everything with Valya ambitious and ruthless and Tula nurturing and loyal.

Read on to see how you can watch "Dune: Prophecy" online with all the streaming details you need below.

Watch On

Do you need to have watched the "Dune" movies first?

Nope. Showrunner Alison Schapker has said: "You don't need to have read the books, and you don't even need to see Denis's [Villeneuve] films, or David Lynch's Dune, or other Dune television series. This can be a point of entry if that's how you're approaching Dune. If you're a Dune super-fan, I also think it's really fun to come to this with all the knowledge."
