As a devoted fan of the Dune saga, I must admit that my excitement for “Dune: Prophecy” has reached new heights after learning about Chloe Lea’s inspiring journey to portray Sister Lila. Her decision to draw inspiration from Timothée Chalamet‘s captivating performance as Paul Atreides in Denis Villeneuve’s Dune movies is not only a testament to her dedication, but also a beautiful example of how the art of acting can transcend characters and stories.
In an interview before the release of “Dune: Prophecy”, actress Chloe Lea discussed how Timothée Chalamet’s portrayal of Paul Atreides in the previous Dune films inspired her audition for the role of Sister Lila. She revealed that she sought elements to emulate from Chalamet’s performance, with the casting call encouraging this approach.
She explained, “The instructions for this audition were quite straightforward since they requested naturalistic performances. However, before receiving the call, I hadn’t seen the initial film. Upon watching it, I was determined to land the role, so I decided to emulate Timothée Chalamet’s performance in a way that felt fitting for my character Paul, as I saw similarities between his and my character Lila’s trajectories.
In response to being asked about specific elements of Chalamet’s performance that influenced her own, Lea explained: “He was incredibly subtle, and every thought on his face seemed so palpable. I felt the same stillness and introspection were evident in my audition scenes for Lila, so I decided to attempt to mimic this quality since he truly embodies acting mastery in everything he does.
Lea playfully said, “Perhaps it didn’t reach Timothée Chalamet-level recognition, but it certainly got me into the right mindset.
Dune: Prophecy” is essentially a precursor story, taking place around 10,000 years before the life of Paul Atreides and the main Dune series events. In this imaginary world, it’s about 10,000 years beyond our current time. The show is adapted from Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson’s novel trilogy titled “Great Schools of Dune,” which isn’t part of Frank Herbert’s original six Dune novels but rather an extension of the universe he created, penned by his son and Anderson.
The narrative explores the emergence of prominent entities within the Dune universe, such as the Bene Gesserit, the Navigators Guild, and the Mentats. These entities vie for power alongside the nascent Corrino empire and residual Butlerian Jihadists following humanity’s conflict against artificial intelligence. It remains uncertain how closely the series will adhere to the books; however, trailers and promotional content hint at significant adaptations as well as unexpected parallels.
The epic saga of Dune: Prophecy will debut this coming Sunday, the 17th of November, on both HBO and Max. It’s worth noting that Denis Villeneuve’s Dune movies can also be found streaming on these platforms. For those eager to dive into the original novels, they are currently available in print, digital, and audio formats.
