Emily Watson takes a backhanded shot at Disney and Star Wars promoting Dune: Prophecy
As a long-time fan who has spent countless hours immersed in the intricate worlds of both Dune and Star Wars, I am eagerly anticipating the upcoming HBO series, Dune: Prophecy. Emma Watson’s assurance that this series won’t be like what Disney has produced recently, particularly Star Wars, is music to my ears.
Prophecy” is designed to offer an independent spin-off from the Dune movies, and one of its leading actors encourages viewers to expect a different experience compared to what Disney has been delivering lately.
In an interview with GamesRadar.com, the actress shared insights about the forthcoming series, emphasizing that it won’t resemble Star Wars.
Watson discussed the upcoming series as it pertains to its content. The storyline of the series will delve into the early stages of the Bene Gesserit’s emergence within their religious group’s formative period. The series is set 10,000 years before the timeline of the Dune movies.
Watson remarked that the palette is quite intriguing as it avoids being juvenile or reminiscent of Star Wars. Instead, it presents a moral depth, making it thought-provoking.
In simpler terms, it’s not entirely inappropriate for her to say that Disney took a hit with Star Wars’ The Acolyte. This show is part of the wider Star Wars universe that Disney has developed for television. Unfortunately, The Acolyte received harsh criticism from critics and was unexpectedly canceled after just one season, despite initial plans for multiple seasons.
Over time, Disney has given Star Wars a more youthful and playful feel compared to its original version. The reintroduction of the “Rey” timeline received mixed reactions from fans. While Daisy Ridley delivered an outstanding performance in her role, the overall trilogy didn’t quite meet expectations. Critics were particularly harsh towards the second movie in this series due to its weak script.
Dune and Star Wars belong to different genres within science fiction, as Dune tends to be more intellectually stimulating.
Just like Star Wars, Dune, derived from Frank Herbert’s book series, enjoys a significant fan base. The long-awaited premiere is set for November on HBO and their streaming app MAX, with the first season featuring six episodes. As of now, there’s no word about additional seasons, but if it proves popular, it could potentially mark the start of a trilogy, considering the rich source material from “Great Schools of Dune.
