The Wheel weaves as the Wheel wills. Amazon Studios unveiled eight first-look images and a premiere date for The Wheel of Time Season 2, Prime Video’s critically lauded fantasy series. Thankfully, we won’t have to wait too long to return to the world of Moiraine Damodred.
About The Wheel of Time
Based on the best-selling Robert Jordan fantasy series, a humble farm boy, Rand al’Thor (Josha Stradowski), learns he is The Dragon Reborn—a dangerous figure from history destined to save the world … or break it. Desperate to protect him from the Dark One, an army of powerful sorceresses must reckon with his burgeoning power and encroaching madness.
The Wheel of Time turns, and the Last Battle approaches. Though Rand thought he destroyed the Dark One, evil is not gone from the world. In Season 2, threats, new and very old, seek out the young friends from the Two Rivers, now scattered over the world. The woman who found and guided them is now powerless to help, and so they must find other sources of strength. In each other or themselves. In the Light … or the Dark.

If you recall, the Season 1 finale, “The Eye of the World,” finds Rand and Moiraine (Rosamund Pike) attempting to eradicate the Dark One. Rand proves he’s worthy of Egwene al’Vere’s (Madeleine Madden) love and the One Power. Nynaeve al’Meara (Zoë Robins) throws herself on Egwene to protect her from the strength of the One Power, making the ultimate sacrifice.
The Wheel of Time also stars Daniel Henney as Lan Mandragoran, Marcus Rutherford as Perrin Aybara, Dónal Finn as Mat Cauthon and Ceara Coveney as Elayne Trakand. It was adapted for television by showrunner and executive producer Rafe Judkins.
