Summary
As we near the end of Max’sDune: ProphecySeason 1, tensions and stakes are rising.
you’re able to watch the full conversation in the video above or read the transcript below.
And I guess creatively, for me, it was exciting because my character is not so explored.

Some of the shots of the exteriors are really quite extraordinary.
The stuff of life.
So, really, all of that intimate stuff plus the scope and the vision of the project.

He suddenly starts to feel a little more confident about everything.
MAY: It’s really interesting the dynamic that the arrival of his character brings into the court.
The way that that twists and turns for me was fascinating to be able to play.

The aha moment for me was how to convey that journey without resorting to obvious choices.

I think this happens in Episode 2.
MAY: We discussed this a bit in rehearsals.
That sets up that story for her character.

House Corrino “Is Under Fire,” But Can Emperor Javicco Protect It?
“The sense of control is just eluding Javiccos grasp.”
Mark, for you, how would Javicco define what house Corrino stands for at this point in time?
TV series set in the ‘Dune’ universe which centers on the lives of the Bene Gesserit.
And same for Natalya; how would she define House Corrinos position in the Imperium?
STRONG: For Javicco, they’re in pole position.
He’s in a world where the house is under fire from all of the other houses.
Everybody’s trying to get something from him.
So, for him, House Corrinoisthe Imperium, but it’s under attack.
So, it’s really interesting to see how she decides to influence that.
He totally abdicates all responsibility.
STRONG: His costume is a very militaristic-looking costume.
Initially, the thought was that he might be in robes.
We would have a sort of free-flowing, very confident feel to him.
It makes you stand up straight and makes you present yourself.
Again, it’ll be interesting to see how that evolves, without giving anything away.
They were all extras in there.
MAY: It’s so interesting.
So, it changes the dynamics.
And yeah, it was incredible to watch.
It’s an incredible climax to that episode.
Thats another scene that I caught myself over-analyzing, looking at everyone’s body language.
STRONG: Well, to be honest, those are my favorite bits.
So, I’m really happy that they allowed that moment to live.
MAY: I think for the Empress, it’s a real game-changer, that scene.
Oh, you held back there!
MAY: I did.
