One of the most mysterious elements of the Dune series is the powerful Bene Gesserit. In Denis Villeneuve's films, actress Rebecca Ferguson is Lady Jessica, the audience's gateway into the superhuman abilities and their shadowy political plays. An acolyte of the faction herself, Jessica defied their teachings and bore a son, Paul Atreides (Timothée Chalamet), who has the makings of the foretold Kwisatz Haderach. In Dune: Part Two, we pick back up on Lady Jessica and Paul's journey into the deserts of Arrakis. Continuing the first of Frank Herbert's books, Part Two will pick back up with the mother and son after they've united with the Fremen. A war is brewing now that Duke Leto Atreides (Oscar Isaac) has been assassinated by the vile Harkonnen family, and the Atreides heir is believed to be dead. With Paul working side-by-side with fighter Chani (Zendaya) and her people, and his mother's teachings, Muad'dib seeks revenge for his family and to alter the future to a path only he can see. Check out the interview in the video above or in the transcript below to find out what about the Bene Gesserit from the books Ferguson begged Villeneuve to include, her reaction to Dune: Prophecy possibly covering it, how she trained for a massive transformation in Part Two, and an update on Apple TV 's Silo Season 2. The cast of Dune: Part Two brings back Javier Bardem as Stilgar, Josh Brolin as Gurney, Dave Bautista as Rabban, Stellan Skarsgård as Baron Harkonnen, and introduces Christopher Walken as the Emperor, Florence Pugh as Princess Irulan, and Austin Butler as Feyd-Rautha. #Dune2 #RebeccaFerguson #SiloSeason2 For interviews, movie reviews, and more visit FOLLOW US ON SOCIAL
