Saskia Reeves, a wonderful stage actress from England, is very well know as a stage actress
in England, who has begun working more regularly in film.
Jessica Atreides is the bound concubine of the Duke Leto Atreides, she is the mother
of Paul.
She's also Bene Gesserit trained.
She is a character that runs through most of the story.
She under goes quite an interesting journey herself, from being a very,
what can I say ...
She and the Duke have been together for a very long time and their love is very very
strong, and she was told to have a daughter, that she would become the partner of the Duke,
that she would have a daughter, and then this daughter would then be married to some Harkonnen
heir and maybe end the feud finally.
She decided to go against this training, this generations of work that has gone into planning
this moment.
She had a son instead because she loved the Duke so much and he wanted a son.
And that's sort of where we are at when we begin the story, where we first meet her.
