Little did I know when I started reading the books several years ago that I would have an exciting TV show coming down the line to look forward to. This is what we know so far about the upcoming Wheel of Time TV show on Amazon.
Many other fans may have seen the 22 minute travesty that was the Red Eagle Entertainment trial adaptation, but you can relax as, even though their name is still attached to the adaptation, they are not really involved in it’s production,
Produced by Sony Pictures Entertainment and Amazon Studios.
Showrunner is Rafe Judkins.
Casting (So Far)
- Rosamund Pike as Moiraine Damodred – She has also been confirmed as the lead character in the series.
- Daniel Henny as Lan Mandragoran
- Joshua Stradowski as Rand al’Thor
- Marcus Rutherford as Perrin Aybara
- Barney Harris as Matrim Cauthon
- Zoë Robins as Nynaeve al’Meara
- Madeleine Madden as Egwene al’Vere
Uta Briesewitz has also been confirmed to direct the first two episodes of season 1.
As more information comes out, I will release the information in future posts. Follow the showrunners on Twitter if you want to see where I got my information from!
