Ahead of its return on September 1st, Amazon Prime has released the first trailer for the second season of its fantasy drama “The Wheel of Time,” based on Robert Jordan’s best-selling book series.
The series unfolds in a sprawling world where magic exists, but only women can use it. In the new run, threats new and very old seek out the young friends from the Two Rivers, now scattered over the world.
The woman who guided them is now powerless to help, and so they must find other sources of strength either in each other or themselves.
Rosamund Pike, Daniel Henney, Zoe Robins, Madeleine Madden, Josha Stradowski and Marcus Rutherford co-star whilst Donal Finn takes over the Mat Cauthon role in the new season (and can be seen in one of the posters).
Joining this season is Ceara Coveney as Lady Elayne Trakand, Ayoola Smart, Natasha O’Keeffe, Gregg Chillingirian, Meera Syal, Maja Simonsen, Ragga Ragnars, Jay Duffy and Rima Te Wiata.
Previously those involved have teased a much bigger scale for the new season in terms of story and production quality. A third season was already in production when the writer’s and actor’s strike led to the production hitting pause.
