That of all of them, angered me the most. I love the books and it would have been cool to see what lots of creative people could do with the material. Instead I spit on this show and the people who made it and will never watch it and will call anyone who does a craven faggot.
The sad thing about Dune, is that there is plenty of what they want to force, later in the series. The woman that the God Emperor Leto falls for, she's black, also his enforcement arm the Fish Speakers are all female. Then you get the political power structure at the end is dominated by the Bene Gesserit and Honored Matres, both female.
I was going to say, watch them make Duncan Idaho a black female once his ghola comes up, but they cast Jason Momoa, which leads to all sorts of kvetching about the casting.
The woman that the God Emperor Leto falls for, she's black
Sincere question, based on what? Because a lot of depictions of her she isn't black.
they cast Jason Momoa
He needs a better agent to get roles beyond "notable character in a book series who dies early on" just like his role as Drogo in A Song of Ice and Fire 🙄
The description of Hwi Noree on page 205 of God Emperor of Dune.
"She did have that dark skin, though, the oval face with its regular features. Placid brown eyes stared back at Leto. And where Malky's hair had been grey, hers was a luminous brown."
Also, this might be the biggest part for Momoa, since the rumored plan was to adapt ALL THE BOOKS, and Duncan Idaho is all six.
They are doing the same shit with the Wheel of Time tv series. Check out the casting roles https://www.imdb.com/title/tt7462410/
If you've read the series you know this is horseshit.
And the dune series.
