Prime Video has today released first-look images from the second season of The Wheel of Time, featuring New Zealand’s own Zoë Robins. Season Two of the Amazon Original series will premiere exclusively on Prime Video in more than 240 countries and territories around the world on September 1.
Based on the best-selling Robert Jordan fantasy series The Wheel of Time, a humble farm boy, Rand al’Thor (Josha Stradowski, Gran Turismo), learns he is The Dragon Reborn, destined to either save the world, or break it. Desperate to keep him safe from the Dark One, a group of powerful sorceresses take him in. The Wheel of Time turns, and the Last Battle approaches. Though Rand believes he has destroyed the Dark One, evil is not gone from the world. In Season Two, threats both new and old seek out the young friends from the Two Rivers, who are now scattered around the world. The woman who originally guided them is unable to help, so they must find other sources of strength, in each other, or themselves.
The Wheel of Time also stars Rosamund Pike as Moiraine Damodred, Daniel Henney as Lan Mandragoran, Zoë Robins as Nynaeve al’Meara, Madeleine Madden as Egwene al’Vere, Marcus Rutherford as Perrin Aybara, Dónal Finn as Mat Cauthon, and Ceara Coveney as Elayne Trakand.
The Wheel of Time was adapted for television by executive producer and showrunner Rafe Judkins. The Wheel of Time is co-produced by Amazon Studios and Sony Pictures Television Studios.
