    Ep592 - Alison Schapker, Creator ‘Dune: Prophecy’

    "We wrote spec scripts. We sat in a Borders bookstore with an out-of-date agent directory and wrote query letters," says Alison Schapker, remembering her earliest days trying to break into television. "It couldn't have been more cold calling than what we were doing." Alison Schapker is a television writer and producer who has worked on genre-defining shows like CHARMED and ALIAS, and most recently served as showrunner on WESTWORLD. Now, she's at the helm of DUNE: PROPHECY, one of science fiction's most anticipated series. DUNE: PROPHECY stars Emily Watson, Olivia Williams, and Travis Fimmel. The TV series, which is still mostly under wraps, is set in the 'Dune' universe which centers on the lives of the Bene Gesserit. In this interview, we explore the evolution from writer to showrunner, the challenges of adapting the beloved source material, crafting the perfect writers' room with a strict "no-a*****e policy," and how therapy and management books shaped her approach to leadership. We also dive deep into the world of the Bene Gesserit and what it means to bring the enigmatic order's origins to the screen. Want more?
