In Dune: Prophecy, Tabu plays Sister Francesca, a formidable Bene Gesserit and former lover of Emperor Javicco Corrino, portrayed by Mark Strong. The series delves into Francesca’s past, with Charithra Chandran portraying a younger version of the character. Josh Heuston’s Constantine, the illegitimate son of Francesca and the Emperor, adds complexity to the narrative. Set 10,000 years before the events of the Dune films, the series explores the origins of the Bene Gesserit, weaving themes of politics, power, and prophecy.
