"It has been an extraordinary experience playing Sister Francesca in Dune: Prophecy right from the moment I was approached for it, and I said yes without batting an eyelid. It's an actor's delight to be trusted by the creators with a character that is so interesting, intriguing, intelligent, and emotionally powerful," Tabu said in a statement.

The actress is set to play the "strong, intelligent, and alluring" character of Sister Francesca in a recurring role on the show.

"Sister Francesca leaves a lasting impression in her wake. Once a great love of the Emperor, her return to the palace strains the balance of power in the capital," the makers said.

Diving into the depths of Sister Francesca's complexity was "an immersive process", said Tabu. "I'm so excited to bring her story to the Indian and global audience. Stay tuned as you'll see me a little later in the season, but the Dune Universe is so rich in its history and intrigue, I can't wait for audiences around the world to explore it," she added.

Dune: Prophecy will follow two Harkonnen sisters as they fight against forces who pose a threat to humanity's survival and form the legendary Bene Gesserit sect that will become known as the Bene Gesserit.

The novel Sisterhood of Dune by Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson served as the basis for the planned series, which takes place 10,000 years before the events of Frank Herbert's Dune. Dune: The Sisterhood was the previous title of the work.

The cast of Dune: Prophecy includes Emily Watson, Olivia Williams, Travis Fimmel, Johdi May, Mark Strong, Sarah-Sofie Boussnina, Josh Heuston, Chloe Lea, Jade Anouka, Faoileann Cunningham, Edward Davis, Aoife Hinds, Chris Mason, and Shalom Brune-Franklin.
