One of the best aspects ofDune : Prophecyseason 1 is that it introduces newfangled elements , and some even weirder elements , than the late film series . For good example , the Bene Gesserit mogul of Voice is one of the most compelling facial expression of the Sisterhood and the originalDunefilms . It is undoubtedly one of the most powerful skills in theDuneuniverse and is accessible only to the Bene Gesserit . While Lady Jessica and others use the Voice throughout theDunefilms towards intriguing ends , Dune : Prophecyseason 1 make the Voice even more dangerous by introduce its originand the lack of moral constraint from its creator .
Furthermore , some of the more strange elements ofthe Duneuniversethat are introduced inDune : Prophecyinclude Thinking Machine engineering science and the various way in which it is used within the Bene Gesserit and beyond . This opens up heap of opportunities for theDuneuniverse , especiallyDune 3and other eventual movies and television receiver serial , to dig deeply into these " weird " areas ofDunelore . ground on the source fabric written by Frank Herbert , Dune : Messiahshould be a big step up in weirdness from the first twoDunemovies .

Another interesting case ofDunespecies is a ghola . accord toDune Wiki , " a ghola was an by artificial means make human being , who was replicated from a stagnant individual . " This would explain the return of a precipitate Dune character in the first 2021 film , Duncan Idaho . Duncan Idaho returns in theDune : Messiahbook and should do so in theDune : Messiahmovie as well . With lots of focussing onThinking Machines inDune : Prophecy , including one being put inside Desmond Hart , it ’s well positioned to pull out that key character constituent off inDune : Prophecy .
