New prequel series Dune: Prophecy may hold the Sisterhood (AKA the sect that would become the Bene Gesserit) at its center, but there are plenty of other players on the chess board too.
One of these is Emperor Javicco Corrino (Mark Strong) and his wife Empress Natalya, played by Jodhi May. Ruling the Imperium, Javicco is trying to hold together a fragile peace in the universe while other, greater forces are at work in the shadows. Natalya has her own ideas, too – but Javicco isn't particularly interested in listening to them.
