You know anytime someone dramatically whips off their hood, it’s a character you must pay attention to. Also glimpsed in this scene: Josha Stradowski as Rand al’Thor, Madeleine Madden as Egwene al’Vere, Marcus Rutherford as Perrin Aybara, and Zoë Robins as Nynaeve al’Meara. They all play important parts in the story to come; here’s the show’s official description as a refresher: “Set in a sprawling, epic world where magic exists and only certain women are allowed to access it, the story follows Moiraine (Rosamund Pike), a member of the incredibly powerful all-female organization called the Aes Sedai, as she arrives in the small town of Two Rivers. There, she embarks on a dangerous, world-spanning journey with five young men and women, one of whom is prophesied to be the Dragon Reborn, who will either save or destroy humanity.”
Wheel of Time’s NYCC panel, headed up by showrunner Rafe Judkins, also revealed three new series regulars for the previously announced season two: Ceara Coveney as Elayne Trakand, plus Natasha O’Keeffe and Meera Syal in as-yet-unrevealed roles. Season one begins streaming November 19 on Amazon Prime.
