Oh this show sounds amazing as hell. She'll be amazing as usual.

YESSS

indiravarma 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽💖💖💖 ohhh wooow 😃 The sisterhood part of the Dune is interesting, so excited 😤

pattonoswalt 'I DON'T GIVE A SHIT WHERE THE STUFF I LOVE COMES FROM, I JUST LOVE THE STUFF I LOVE!'

Can we stop pretending HBO is immune from criticism because of their diverse casting? It’s a total smoke screen to secure their own power and privilege. Look what they did to these two Latinx families

Who ThA FACK is writing these headlines. I still don't know what prequel they talking about

Awkward headline

Excellent choice!

Rome is definitely an underrated show.

I almost got out of bed and went outside to run over my phone with the car after reading that headline

Indira Varma, who starred in projects such as Game of Thrones & Obi Wan, joins HBO Max in the new Legendary Prequel 'Dune: The Sisterhood' As Empress Natalya. That's how I'd write it. I didn't go to college though...

Lol trash 🗑

Awesome. I love her tits!!

Am I the only one, or is this sentence just long winded?

worst dune book epic idea hbo

Mrs Pucci, Human Target

We’re in the age of prequel series I see. Why is Hollywood so openly hacky? Don’t the people working on these shows get embarrassed that it obviously started out with the wuestion “how can we jump on this craze?”

I remember her from Karma Sutra. I've never forgotten her ever

Loved her since Rome

They're building quite the cast for that series! 🙂👏👏👏 DuneTheSisterhood DunePartTwo DuneMovie

This headline is way too confusing.

DAMN, she's always been gorgeous. Looking forward to this show...

ROME star,,, where’s the love

MykelKinard

the “Rome” erasure smh

Except she was left in the Dungeon by Cersi Lanister.

I've got a bad feeling about this

This is a *great* casting choice for Sisterhood. Well done.

Ah, Zoe...

I mean there’s gotta be a better way to rewrite this tweet

This turned into my most anticipated show.

I love her 😍

Excellent casting!

I'm all prequeled out!

These tweets always have such a weird use of the word “star” lol. She was in like 8 episodes of Game of Thrones and in most of them she only had 3 or 4 lines lol. It’s like y’all just look up the actors imdb page and pick the most popular thing.

Too many Buzz words I don't know what the new thing is!

had to read the title like 10 times bruh

I don't know who got done more dirty by Disney, her or Jennifer Beals (her doppleganger of sorts) in Boba Fett...

Don't forget Rome.

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼❤️

Ahh so a female centric prequel show with no source material oversight in a franchise that is super confusing already, and on the heels of some of the biggest TV flops in history? At this point one has to wonder...are these TV producers asking themselves:

So excited to see this legendary actress add another sci-fi/fantasy series to her resume 🙌

I better hope David Zaslav not cancel this show!

You mean, Rome star

She was my favorite character in Obi-Wan probably, then they killed her off, lol. Glad she gets around in the acting world.

sadly she was the only one that could act in that series, the acting on OBI-Wan felt like a porn parody most of the time. It was terrible, I always forget it exists till it gets brought up again.

Kinda weird y’all didn’t mention “Rome”.

All in for any series with Indira Varma

What kind of word salad headline is this?

I hope she doesn't die. They are always killing off Indira.

To me, she will always be Myah from the movie Kama Sutra. ♥️ My favorite movie and favorite character.

IDEASOFICE_FIRE I only know dune because of you, video on this?

This headline is so hard to read. My simple brain needed to read it a dozen times understand it.

Oh, that empress is gonna die. theykeepkillingsusie

And the 'go woke' peoples heads explode.... 😂

what a woman

Big W for HBO. She's a massively underrated actress who has excelled at her roles from Rome to Game of Thrones to Obi Wan 👍

lcshorten YES, I adore her!!!

dduane Making stuff up out of whole cloth, again.
