Sister Francesca, Jihae’s character, embodies strength, intelligence, and allure, marking her as a force to be reckoned with. Her return to the imperial palace sets the stage for a power struggle of cosmic proportions, adding intrigue and depth to the unfolding saga.

Co-produced by Max and Legendary Television, with Legendary also at the helm of the film franchise, ‘Dune: Prophecy’ holds the promise of a breathtaking cinematic experience. While the release date remains shrouded in mystery, anticipation is palpable as audiences await the unveiling of this intergalactic saga.
