![]() Loved the first look at the Trollocs! When are we getting more? And we’ve got to deliver that in the show. The best thing about Wheel of Time is the world keeps getting bigger and deeper. Will Season 2 take us to a lot of new locations? How big can the world get? We leaned into the books and tried to have the Trollocs have as much individual character as possible. How many “brands” of Trollocs did you create for the show? I’m not going to spoil who, but two of the core cast are in a read off right now, and I think one of them may have finished the series. Did any of the actors end up becoming fans of the book series after getting cast? Will wee see Narg?įor the unfamiliar, Narg is the talking Trolloc from the very first chapters of The Eye of the World. One of them has a big presence in The Eye of the World, so the odds are good that we’ll see him, at least. The Forsaken are some of the main villains of the series. focusing on Rand?Īs I’ve always said, we are adapting the whole series, not just The Eye of the World, and I really think this is an ensemble series, so the first season is as well. How are you balancing the number of POVs in the book vs. ![]() Everyone’s ability to adapt and meet the stresses of a time like this has been amazing to watch.Īlready a family, whether they’re in the Two Rivers or not. We’ve built a family in Prague with the cast and crew and keeping everyone safe has been the top priority. What was the most difficult part of creating The Wheel of Time during a global pandemic? That Judkins gets the nuance is a good sign. Judkins is talking about how a woman’s weaves (magic) can only be seen by other women who can channel. ![]() You’re going to see it all if you’re a woman who can channel. Will we see the actual weaves or just the end result of channeling? It can always change, obviously, but it’s important to know where we are going and how we are getting there so we build it right if Amazon Prime Video keeps us around for the long haul. Yeah, between Season 1 and 2 we made a rough map of how the series could break down into seasons. Do you have the plot of all the seasons roughly mapped out? ![]() What character that didn’t appear in Season 1 & does appear in Season 2 are you most excited about?Ĭan you say, “ELAYNE!” It’s been rumored that Elayne Trakand, the daughter of the queen of Andor, wouldn’t appear in the first season even though she’s introduced in the first book, The Eye of the World. This seems as close to official confirmation as we’re likely to get.Įlayne pops up again in the second book, The Great Hunt, and is a pretty consistent presence thereafter, so if she is indeed cut from the first season, it shouldn’t be too difficult to work her back into the story. There’s still so much to be done to get the show ready to air and get Season 2 shooting, that while I was drinking my celebratory champagne on set after the last shot Tuesday, someone grabbed me to tackle three new problems that had come up and I had to leave. To be honest, it hasn’t fully hit me yet. How are you feeling having wrapped Season 1? All of them start the story in the sleepy village of Emond’s Field, but are whisked away on an epic adventure by the Aes Sedai sorceress Moiraine Damodred (Rosamund Pike): ![]() The Emond’s Field Five is made up of Egwene al’Vere (Madeleine Madden), Rand al’Thor (Josha Stradowski), Perrin Aybara (Marcus Rutherford), Nyneave al’Meara (Zoë Robins) and Mat Cauthon (Barney Harris). Do the Emond’s Field Five actors perform stunts on their own or do they have stunt doubles?Įveryone on the show has a stunt double, but most of our actors are really amazing with the physical stuff and doing their own stunts. The first season of the show will have eight episodes, so fans can expect over seven hours of entertainment in Randland to start. And these episodes are epic, so we are clocking in between 50-65 minutes each. Let’s see what Judkins had to say: What’s the average running time of each Wheel of Time episode?Īmazon is great because each episode doesn’t have to hit an exact time like you do in network TV. Gonna do a 30-minute #wheeloftime Q&A on my Instagram Stories in about 15 minutes to celebrate the official greenlight for Season 2 of Wheel of Time! Also, it’s Happy Hour in Prague so now’s your chance to trick me into saying too much Rafe Judkins May 20, 2021 ![]()
