Some of the plot you outlined is straight out of the Dune prequels that were written by Herbert's son. In the prequels, Arrakis was discovered by a group of escaped slaves that stole a ship during an uprising, about 10000 years before the main plot if Dune, and they were called Free Men.
Not defending the show at all, it sounds like another snoozfest from HBO, but I have read most the books so I'll probably give it a watch out of curiosity. Can't be worse than the 2000 Dune miniseries.
