Hey everyone, Nuked here! I know you are all excited about HBO Max’s upcoming series Dune: The Sisterhood. Unfortunately, the production has been hit with some set backs.

Deadline reports that actress Shirley Henderson, one of the lead actresses, and director Johan Renck, who was slated to direct the first two episodes, have both decided to pull out of the series.

In a statement to Deadline, an HBO Max spokesperson said that there are some creative changes being made to the production in order to stay true to the source material. The role of Tula Harkonnen, which Henderson was originally slated to portray, will be recast.

Showrunner Alison Schapker’s team may have time to put more finishing touches on the series scripts. But from the outside looking in, it looks like Dune: The Sisterhood could be in some trouble.

Let’s hope everything works out and we can get the show we all deserve!
