I heard that Prince Harry was a bit of a an inspiration for you.

Can you explain a bit about that?

Yeah.

So, um, Sarah Sophie, who plays in as her we spoke a lot about, um I guess other royal houses and, um royal families.

So I I use Prince.

Whereas you can look at stuff on like YouTube and that, and you kind of get, I guess, a bit more of a guarded look into it.

But, um, generally, when you see those sort of roles on YouTube, there's like a different facade that they put up.

So then we explored the that sort of like masks that they would have when they're in public, and then also look, while looking into the book, you kind of see how they would operate on a personal level, which was nice.

Um, and then we looked at everything from that to the Indians.

Um uh, class system as well, because concertina goes between, I guess, the upper echelons of society and also the lower ranks.

So you kind of trying to build the dune universe in a way that I guess, because it's such a grand scale, but then also trying to make it like a much more intimate drama at the same time.
