Frank Herbert's Children of Dune, adapting both novels Dune Messiah and Children of Dune novel by Frank Herbert, is a sequel to the miniseries produced by the United States-based Sci Fi Channel. It was directed by Greg Yaitanes, adapted for television by John Harrison, with music by Brian Tyler. The name of the miniseries is somewhat of a misnomer, because the miniseries does not portray the events of the novel Children of Dune until its second and third parts; the first part is a reasonably faithful adaptation of the first sequel to Dune, the novel Dune Messiah.

| - Frank Herbert's Children of Dune, adapting both novels Dune Messiah and Children of Dune novel by Frank Herbert, is a sequel to the miniseries produced by the United States-based Sci Fi Channel. It was directed by Greg Yaitanes, adapted for television by John Harrison, with music by Brian Tyler. The name of the miniseries is somewhat of a misnomer, because the miniseries does not portray the events of the novel Children of Dune until its second and third parts; the first part is a reasonably faithful adaptation of the first sequel to Dune, the novel Dune Messiah. Just as the first chapter in this miniseries was considered more faithful to the novels than the movies that preceded it, Children of Dune worked to correct the mistakes of its own predecessor. Some fans had complaints about the color of the eyes of the Fremen, as they appeared to be almost phosphorescent in the first Sci Fi miniseries, not the "blue within blue" described by Herbert. The eye color was toned down in the sequel to a more accurately representative deep but vibrant blue. This miniseries is also noted for its highly successful soundtrack, composed by Brian Tyler.
