    Johan Renck to Direct First Two Episodes of “Dune: The Sisterhood”

    We are delighted to share the news that Johan Renck, Emmy winner for his amazing work on HBO’s “Chernobyl,” will direct the first two episodes of “Dune: The Sisterhood.”

    HBO Max’s series will be a “Dune” prequel about the Bene Gesserit. The Sisterhood schemes across a millennium to set in motion the birth of a messiah, the Kwisatz Haderach, a male Bene Gesserit who has the power to unlock genetic memory. We see them exhibit some of their influence and power in both David Lynch‘s 1984 version of “Dune,” and Denis Villeneuve‘s 2021 “Dune Part One.”

    Showrunner Diane Ademu-John will also write, and executive produce. Denis Villeneuve, who directed 2021’s “Dune Part One,” will also executive produce with Renck, Jon Spaihts, Scott Z. Burns, Mark Friedman, and Matthew King. Brian Herbert, Byron Merritt, and Kim Herbert are executive producers for the Frank Herbert estate. Author Kevin J. Anderson will also co-produce.

    We’ll let you know what we hear about casting.

    We’re excited to announce that Johan Renck will be directing the first 2 episodes of Legendary’s Dune: The Sisterhood series. From showrunner Diane Ademu-John the series will stream on @hbomax. pic.twitter.com/29SZP4GJcx

    Mary Anne Butler (Mab) has been part of the fast-paced world of journalism since she was 15, getting her start in album reviews and live concert coverage for a nationally published (print) music magazine. She eventually transitioned to online media, writing for such sites as UGO/IGN, ComicsOnline, Geek Magazine, Ace of Geeks, Aggressive Comix (where she is still Editor-in-Chief), Bleeding Cool (where she was News Editor), and now Nerdbot as Editor-In-Chief. Over the past 10 years, she’s built a reputation at conventions across the globe as a cosplayer (occasionally), photographer (constantly), panelist and moderator (mostly), and reporter (always). Interviews, reviews, observations, breaking news, and objective reporting are the name of the game for the founder of Harkonnen Knife Fight, a Dune-themed band with an international presence. Though she be but little, she is fierce.
