While cinema fans are impatiently anticipating the upcoming sequel to Dune, there is another project from the universe slowly appearing on the horizon. For some time now, we have been aware that a series set in the world created by Frank Herbert is coming to the HBO Max platform.
Dune: The Sisterhood is going to be a prequel to the cinematic productions, and now the cast of this series has been expanded by a certain famous name.
As reported by Deadline, Indira Varma is going to play Imperator Natalya, who is the wife of Emperor Corrino and was expected to “reconcile thousands of worlds with each other.”
Indira Varma is an actress who gained her greatest fame for her role as Ellaria Sand in Game of Thrones. Her appearance in the Dune prequel is promising to be just as exciting.
