The Wheel Of Time (Prime Video)
Noille paikkeille itsekän aikoinaan jäin, ja näköjään tuolle tylsyydelle on termikin (slog). Harmi, kirjat 11-14 on lukemisen arvoiset. Toivottavasti tv-sarja pääsee finaaliin asti. :thumbsup: Kellään mitään kommentteja muutamaan edelliseen viestiin? Tylsää yksinpuhella. :lol:

Kyseessä on siis Robert Jordanin valmiiseen 15-osaiseen The Wheel Of Time-kirjasarjaan (julkaistu 1990-2013) perustuva TV-sarja. Yksi fantasiakirjallisuuden merkittävimmistä teoksista ja esim. allekirjoittaneen lempparisarja. Maailmassa on pahuutta, "taikuutta"(kutsutaan kanavoinniksi ja Ainoaksi Mahdiksi), ennustuksia, useita eri kulttuureja ja rotuja ym. klassisen fantasian asioita.
Normaalista poikkeavaa on mm. se, että kanavoimaan kykenevät miehet tulevat ennen pitkää hulluiksi, koska Mahdin miehinen puolisko on saastunut tuhansia vuosia sitten Pimeän Valtiaan (pääpahis, lukittuna "vankilaan") kosketuksesta. Tästä johtuen kanavoimaan kykenevät naiset, Aes Sedait, ovat johtavassa asemassa. En avaa tässä sen enempää, alempana hieman enemmän tietoa.
Ensimmäinen kausi alkaa Prime Videossa 19.11.2021 ja kakkoskauden kuvaukset on alkaneet.

NYCC 2021 - Wheel of Time Q&A Panel - transcription
Amy Ratcliffe
Hi, I'm Amy Ratcliffe managing editor for Nerdist and today I'm thrilled to present to you amazon prime videos the Wheel of Time panel at New York Comic Con. Decades ago, Robert Jordan's day of the world was the first fantasy book I ever read. And I quickly became enthralled slash obsessed with the Wheel of Time books. I know I can speak for fans around the globe when I say we cannot wait to see the Wheel of Time TV series. And I can't wait to introduce new folks to this world. A world we're going to learn more about today. Please allow me to introduce our incredible lineup of panelists, executive producer and showrunner Rafe judkins. Playing more rain Rosamund Pike, playing LAN Daniel henney. Playing Rand Josha Stradowski. Playing Perrin, Marcus Rutherford. Playing Nynaeve, Zoë Robins and playing Egwene Madeleine Madden. Yay, everyone, thank you so much for being here. I'm excited. Like, this is like your introduction to the world. That's pretty awesome. No pressure. [unintelligible]
Amy Ratcliffe 1:20
and I'm gonna put things right on Rafe to start off. So Wheel of Time's been around a little while, as evidenced earlier, but my decades comment. There's a small amount of source material. How did you adapt the story both for longtime fans, but also to make it appealing and like digestible for newcomers?
Rafe Judkins 1:40
You know, I think the book series is obviously massive, not not just in terms of the length and the content of it, but also what it means to people, you know, so many people, millions of people around the world read these books and had some kind of formative experience with them. Something emotional people that they love that they read them with, I read them with my mom, you know, so I think the thing that I really viewed as, as my goal with bringing the series to television was to try to deliver the heart of the series to people. You know, I understand and accept that everyone watching the show will probably be like, "that person is not as tall as I expected", "that's not the look that I thought it would have" you know, it, "they left out my very favorite storyline from the books". But I think if people can just see it up on the screen and feel like at its heart it, it feels like the books in that intangible way, then we will have done our job. And I think that does the job of bringing new fans to the show and to the world of Wheel of Time as well. Because if we can deliver what all these millions of people loved about the books, then I think it's the same thing people can fall in love with with the show.
Amy Ratcliffe 3:00
Yeah, and I think there's gonna be an understanding, you're adapting books that are an average of 708 pages long, you can't put all of that into. You can't you know, how does the Wheel of Time do you think differ from maybe other fantasy stories audiences have have seen before?
Rafe Judkins 3:17
It's interesting, because you know, when the books came out in the early 90s, there was so many things that were revolutionary about them at the time. You know, it was this first series to have a big ensemble cast with different POV characters that you go into their chapters. It was the first fantasy book series where half that cast was women. But I think the thing for me that's really interesting, and really drew me to doing the adaptation of the series now was that Wheel of Time is really more inspired by Hinduism and Buddhism. And these Eastern philosophies, so in our world, reincarnation exists. And the ultimate goal is not for good to defeat evil. It's to restore balance to this world that's out of balance. And I think, you know, the world around us right now is fairly polarized. And to have a show that is talking about what it means to find balance, I think is super relevant to the time right now.
Amy Ratcliffe 4:20
Can you tell us like a little bit too about the kind of magic in the world?
Rafe Judkins 4:25
Yeah, so I mean, Rosamund can probably speak to it even better than I can. But, you know, magic in the world of wield time is called channeling and it's, it's this ability to tap into something called the One Power. And in our world, when you first get introduced to it, only women can do this. We think there's a very serious asterix on that statement, and people will learn about as as the series goes on. But it really did such a flip on everything in the world of Wheel of Time, this idea that women have more power naturally than men. You see it in every single different culture in the world, providing providing a different flip that we're not expecting.
Amy Ratcliffe 5:05
So Rafe I'm obviously thrilled y'all are here today. But I also know that you came with something to show us, can you can you set it up?
Rafe Judkins 5:12
Yes, we actually got to bring you a little clip today. And I wanted to bring something that I thought was one of those iconic scenes that I still remember from the books. This clip is Moiraine's first arrival in the two rivers. And it's cool because it's when we get to see all of the lovely people on this panel really interact together and be in the same room for the very first time in the series. So it's that moment that kind of activates everything in the Wheel of Time. It's the moment that these kids who live in this mountain village their life is never the same from the moment that woman walks into town. So this is that moment.
Clip from show 6:26
[Clip from the show plays, available online at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UIMkfP4JsxU]
Amy Ratcliffe 8:15
Rosamund, Moiraine is an incredibly powerful Aes Sedai. And she's not only the characters guide into the world, but the audience as well. Can you tell me like what appealed to you about the role?
Rosamund Pike 8:25
Historically, I'm not a big reader of fantasy. But with this, that changed my mind. And I know that traditionally that any guide character in a fantasy world is usually a man. And it was very intriguing to have this mysterious stranger who comes to town and changes the lives of people forever be being a woman, and doing lots of things about the whole culture of Aes Sedai that that really drew me a lot. I think on a sort of spiritual sense, I felt it was the right time in my life to explore a sort of power outside of myself, I think the whole idea of channeling and tapping into something elemental was very appealing to me at this particular moment in my life, and being able to create a language to express that connection really interested interested me a lot. As well as taking on the responsibility of showing someone who wields great power, how they do it, how they use it, how it when they restrain from using it, what the flip side of it is, what it means to be that person who knows they can use it, and what they like when they're not using it. All those things really interesting. interested me and the other thing about the Aes Sedai culture is this relationship between an Aes Sedai and her Warder. Now, you know, I played portrayed many relationships between men and women on screen I've never played one as quite as fascinating as this which involves intense loyalty, deep trust, huge connection, and yet know nothing sexual, nothing romantic, but it's a fidelity and a love. That is just as powerful as anything that we know from romantic attachment, and that really interested me a lot and obviously I found the perfect order in Daniel Henney who plays Lan
Amy Ratcliffe 10:13
Daniel, how did you when you read about the relationship between between Lan and Moiraine how, like how did you react to that and kind of feel about that bond?
Daniel Henney 10:25
I felt very similar to Rosamund. I think her and I we we initially had a FaceTime jeez must been two years ago now seems like it was just yesterday that we spoke about that exact same thing exploring a new idea of what love is you know, I think pushing the boundaries of love and seeing a new relationship on screen how they know everything about each other they care deeply for each other but almost like twins in a way they can feel everything but there's nothing sexual and nothing more going on and and it's unique to their relationship because you know other orders now I said I have different forms of this relationship too.
Amy Ratcliffe 11:00
Rosamund I'm curious you know, going back to the One Power a little bit I know it takes some some hand motions that are much cooler than what I'm doing right now. But how did you develop what those gestures would look like when Moiraine is using the One Power in battle?
Rosamund Pike 11:13
Well, I mean, I thought about it a lot and I know that you know this could be controversial because there's a lot of talking to books on how women learn to use the power they often learn with their hands and then as they become more expert, they need to use the gestures less and I think we knew going into it I discussed this a lot with Rafe that each woman who comes into our show will get the opportunity to develop her own particular style and the kind of flavor of her own version of channeling but I think there's a lot in Robert Jordan's writing that talks about dance there's a lot of thing that talks about the the the Aiel and dance and a lot of thing that talks about sword motion sword players dance and although I don't think that channel exists anywhere dance I think that some you know Robert Jordan was clearly interested in in movement and the way we move and one thing that was very important to me was that if there were no CGI effects people would believe that it was connected to something and for me that connection comes through movement. I needed to feel that there was you know I'm not just throwing out that my hands that there's some deep level in which something is coming in something bigger than me because Jordan writes about it so brilliantly like it fills your veins I mean he writes about it almost like a drug that's that's such an extreme feeling and it fills your body takes it over and that's why you need to learn to control it so I thought for me I need to drink that in I need to feel it in every fiber and also I thought it would make cool shots. With Lan you know we had the opportunity for this battle sequence the end of episode one where you can you know, yes, we can obviously tell you about the connection between an Aes Sedai and her Warder but in that battle, we get the opportunity to show it. We get the opportunity to show that they feel one another's presence so he with his you know, the way he can, you know, work through a series of five trollocs and decimate them gives her space to connect to the source you know, all those things that the way they move around each other was really important. And obviously you can make it big and then if you make it big, you can also make it small. That's the point it doesn't always have to be big, tiny you can see the shadow of it later. And we'll because we've seen it before we'll understand it anyway I'm going to stop talking now
Amy Ratcliffe 13:34
it's lovely I do wanna ask Daniel though. Mentioning trollocs you know Lan fights besides Moiraine involves dark one, the Dark One's creatures and we saw the trollocs and myrddraal in the trailer. They were scary so I want to know your reaction to seeing them on set.
Daniel Henney 13:51
Oh well I mean it's a little different because I know most of the stunt men that are inside of the trolloc costumes. it's not as scary and it's kind of funny because every once in a while one would slip mid-fight and I'd have to help them up and then slice them down again which I felt kind of bad about but they looked absolutely fantastic and I think it must have been probably the second week of September 2019 we had a sort of a trolloc reveal where all the trollocs we got to see the final look in person and it was in the middle of the day full lighting and you could not tell I mean the costumes the makeup was so amazing what they'd done with these with these creatures It was really impressive and so you know if you when you read the books, and they come in to Tam and Rand's farm, the way they're described it's just it's so incredible and it's it's a tall task to get that right and I think they did an amazing job with these creatures.
Amy Ratcliffe 14:54
That's awesome. I hope that for the trolloc reveal you all got like an invite and that was the subject.
Rafe Judkins 15:01
They being chosen for their different roles during that that lineup. So there were a couple really, really desperate little trollocs on the end and not getting picked by Uta the director and I had always wanted them to have character that you like really feel for the trollocs and their differences and seeing the two little ones on the end looking at them for a special fight scenes was hilarious.
Amy Ratcliffe 15:29
Josha I want to talk about Rand clearly, very early on Rand gets possession of a special sword. Can you tell us about the blade and also what your training was like?
Josha Stradowski 15:40
Yeah, that's the heron marked blade. The heron marked blade is, I guess it's a sword that you can only get when you reach a certain level of sword fighting. That's when you become a blade master. It's like I guess it's like a black belt in Brazilian jujitsu. And Tam, Rand's father, he was a blade master and he owns such a sword. And yeah, this sword becomes a really important weapon on their journey. But Rand, first of all, is more familiar with his bow and arrow. So I had also archery training, besides of the stunts training, and all the other trainings that we have
Amy Ratcliffe 16:22
Do you have a personal preference, bow or sword as an actor?
Josha Stradowski 16:28
I guess I must go with the bow and arrow first. Yeah.
Amy Ratcliffe 16:33
Staying, true to Rand I like it. Marcus, I'm curious. So from the teaser trailer, I could see the sets looked wildly massive, especially Shadar Logoth and I kind of wondered what it's like working on these sets that seem like they're, they're very real.
Marcus Rutherford 16:51
Yeah, no, that was one thing from like, Episode One rightly, and I just was never cease to amaze by how epic the sets were. I think Andrea, our set designer is a bit of a genius. And I think maybe in the genre is hard to create things that are new and original, every room, sort of inn, tavern, city, world that these characters went into, they had their own sort of culture, their own language, and their own character. And I think that was, that was amazing. From day one. I remember my first day in Two Rivers, I was kind of sat on a bench in the middle. And I just saw did like a 360 view. And I just saw like, my forge where I work I saw like the Winespring Inn and I just had like a village, they built a village basically, like out of nothing. And as an actor, when you have a set built to that magnitude it's invaluable how helpful that is. And it kind of sets you up perfectly to do your job. So the sets have been Yeah, breathtaking.
Amy Ratcliffe 17:54
Well, that sounds amazing. And I think another part of that is costuming. So Zoë, I wanted to ask, you know, Nynaeve's braid, it's a it's a whole thing. It's a hallmark of her character. So I wanted to hear like the first time you got into Nynaeve's costume, what it was like, and also just kind of what the the gorgeous costuming added and bringing the world to life.
Zoë Robins 18:13
Yeah, I mean, similar to what Marcus was saying, like the level of artistry on this production is like nothing I've ever experienced before. So just like how they've got like little spoons, and like, I've got a little herb bag and things that you'll never see I feel which is kind of sad, because you're taking in this amazing spectacle and, and just the attention to details, just like, ridiculous. So when I, when I first had the costume on, it was just really, I guess, informative for me, and really helpful just for me to learn how I was gonna walk as Nynaeve though she puts her weight and she definitely walked with her head. And the braid, too. I mean, it's so integral to to Nynaeve, and It was really like, special for me to be able to incorporate my natural hair texture in the braid. It's It's such a, I don't know, I feel like we have this really beautiful opportunity to be able to represent in a really loving, careful way. And yeah, it's really, really special.
Amy Ratcliffe 19:18
Oh, that's wonderful. Making me feel warm and fuzzy. And also I'm thinking I know that that some intrepid fan has run a count on how many times Robert Jordan mentioned Nynaeve's braid in the books and it's gotta be, it's gotta be up there. So I'm glad.
Zoë Robins 19:34
She tugs that braid.
Amy Ratcliffe 19:37
Madeleine, I want to talk about a Egwene she is strong willed to say the least she goes after what she wants. And I kind of want to hear from you like what drew you to the role and how you prepared.
Madeleine Madden 19:49
I remember when I first got my my audition for the role and we I had three different scenes and I just remember each scene was just so different from the other and I knew that this character would go on such an incredible journey and and you know an emotional one as well and as an actor that's kind of everything that you you hope for and a character someone that has really a lot of depth and you know someone that you can kind of grow with and I feel like over the past two years i've i've really really grown with Egwene and and you know I do feel like there are a lot of things that I can kind of relate to her about but you know she's she's the innkeeper's daughter of the Two Rivers and you know, her family is a part of the fabric of the community. They're not just like socially but politically so she's really cemented in this village and you know, she's a fiercely independent, eager and determined young woman. Something I really connected to her with was I think her sense of duty of like wanting to make a difference in the world and you know, making some pretty difficult choices to see that through and that's something that you know resonated with me and I feel like will resonate with a lot of audience members and why she's such a loved loved character by the fans. She's constantly having this internal battle I think with what her heart wants and what her mind wants and you know, she feels like she is destined for something greater in the world and that means you know, she might have to leave leave the Two Rivers so you know, it's um, it's been an absolute honor to play her and bring her to life.
Amy Ratcliffe 19:55
I love it she was my favorite because I grew up in a very small town and I'm like if Egwene can go out there in the world, so can I am doing probably so Zoë so Nynaeve is a Wisdom for Emund's Field she is this incredible healer and such a powerful figure in the village. Can you talk about kind of exploring that really leadership even though Nynave isn't I mean she's relatively young.
Zoë Robins 22:02
Yeah, she is she she's the authority figure of the Two Rivers village and I think she's been undermined her whole kind of Wisdom career so she definitely has like um a bee in her bonnett with certain certain villagers but um, I think exploring the insecurities that Nynaeve has but also her how headstrong she is has been an absolute gift. Yeah, she's she's so amazingly complex and flawed and detailed and yeah, I can't can't wait for you guys to see see her.
Rafe Judkins 22:42
I can't wait either. Marcus, you know, Perrin also has a unique role in in the village. He works with a blacksmith and he's someone as we learned is very conflicted about he's very, like wants he wants to be peaceful and he tries to be peaceful. Can you talk about like trying to be peaceful in a world where there are trollocs and fades and all kinds of monsters coming after you?
Marcus Rutherford 23:03
Yeah. Yeah, he's our gentle giant. And I think everything he does, he takes is very considered and he takes a very thoughtful approach to it. And I think Moiraine kind of takes our kids into this world outside this village and he's instantly surrounded by you know, violence and war and destruction and it's something that he has to come to terms with and something that he's very conflicted by you know, this animal nature that we have inside ourselves or so they sort of yeah, that's kind of passive side that we also have and I think he's very torn, which side is in him and which side is gonna kind of take control of him and I think throughout the series, I think that's something that the audiences are going to enjoy
Rafe Judkins 23:52
All your characters you know, go on a journey and in a fantasy setting that means a lot of riding horses probably a lot of that and I'm curious for the group if you had experience riding horses before with horseback riding or if you kind of had any fun stories from set about learning that skill,
Rosamund Pike 24:10
The horses become characters you know you've got this you've got this is the seven of us and then you've got seven horses which are also a liability and so you've got you know, wrangle all of that on set and you know, also try and keep within a frame so sometimes you know, you've got we've got my big horse with then we've got Maddie's horse who's who's Bella, you know, also very loved character in the books and Archie was not the speediest of mounts was he
Madeleine Madden 24:39
He was the he was the gaseous of mounts though. Always remember when someone was doing like an amazing monologue or some really intense talking about how, you know we've just survived 100 trollocs and a fade and then Archie just rips the loudest fart. I swear they can hear it back in Prague 1. He was amazing.
Rafe Judkins 25:08
Animals, always a wild card. Did any of you feel like you feel like your suit got super attached to your horse while you were filming?
Marcus Rutherford 25:14
Yeah man i think i don't know i never owned a horse before so I was quite nervous because they're big man they're just sort of this big blocks of muscle My horse is really big because I because I'm quite big and he's quite stubborn at the start and you kind of you have this like the the horse trainers are like there'll be a moment when you kind of just like you're going to connect to be like Avatar you'll kind of like connect with each other and that was like one day in the woods where he was just like he was just been so slow and I just kind of gave him a nice little squeeze and he I swear to god he did like a little nod and he went the right way and ever since then I've just been like connected but it's it's tricky to start it's very very tricky because you're such so different to anything you do day to day like when are you using those muscles? And like sitting like that I mean people might do I don't know but like is what is different to what I do
Daniel Henney 26:10
We had some difficult scenes where we were riding pretty fast we couldn't use Rosamund so we had there was like a stunt dummy made for her and nothing was the most difficult it was terrible because it's like 150 pounds of dead weight you had to have it we had a harness we'd have to wear to keep it on so it would constantly slip off and you think it'd be easier to have that than real person but you can't talk to a dummy and say can you please you're sitting on my thigh or my leg's asleep or it was just
Marcus Rutherford 26:40
you just move so much Rosamund can sort of even actually sort of ill or whatever she can hold her body there still needs to slow [unintelligible] and you just can't control them and it was like all this terrible
Madeleine Madden 26:54
I remember I remember we'd like do a truck in like the scene or something and the dummy's head was like, on like Marcus's shoulder I think it was like Marcus can you just like hold Moiraine's head and it kind of gave it a bit of a different feel of just Perrin and Moiraine like
Rosamund Pike 27:16
I have to ride on a horse with with with someone else it's a it's a privilege to ride the horses I mean it's like if you've ever enjoyed playing dress up then you know it's about the best dress up you can have really as being in these fabulous costumes on a beautiful horse in the middle of some of the most stunning countryside it's like the best sort of fancy dress party ever really yeah the horses are beautiful and the other thing it's nice in the Czech Republic actually we're allowed to do quite a lot when I did a Western in the States and the insurance policies are such that it's very very hard to allow or insure actors to do any of their own riding and so for us you know to obviously within with all the bounds of you know, proper training and and as much safety as we can ensure we're still allowed to do a lot which is very exciting. You know we
Rafe Judkins 28:08
It makes it feel real you know, like you can feel it all the scenes of you guys on horseback or feel that idea of this group traveling and they're on a journey and they're working hard and they live in these saddles and you guys did live in those saddles in Prague so it brought an authenticity to it.
Amy Ratcliffe 28:26
Well and that's you know, it's such a hallmark the epic quest of riding on horse across beautiful open fields like that's fantasy in a nutshell I mean there's a lot more to it clearly but that's... another one for the group and you know there are 14 books pretty massive series and this is not a test at all but I'm curious who has like who's the furthest along in reading the books?
Rosamund Pike 28:51
Josha.
Amy Ratcliffe 28:54
How many have you read Josha?
Josha Stradowski 28:58
I'm at 11 now. I got it here actually.
Amy Ratcliffe 29:02
oh you're like I'm I was doing this before we started wow this several 1000 pages.
Josha Stradowski 29:10
I know.
Zoë Robins 29:13
Maddie and I are just behind him.
Amy Ratcliffe 29:15
Oh you're right there Well, if you just steal his book, you'll you'll get ahead. So but Josha I'm curious with 11 books and you're filming you're I know you're filming Season Two but is it hard to like have all this book knowledge in your head and all the characters and then come to set and you're playing the character and like is it trouble? I guess you have trouble dissociating between books and work.
Marcus Rutherford 29:43
Yeah, I guess when we first started like the first few episodes, new scripts would come in every day. And I feel like we were we all started reading the books then it could be a bit confusing at times, but most of the time it's... It's truly a gift to have so much material to, you know, sink your teeth in. And I'm looking at the book the whole time because it's here. Yeah, I don't know, it's just, it's, it's amazing to get to understand the world of the Wheel of Time with its different beliefs its different cultures with different people and all the different places. And then, of course, the great arc of you know, Rand and try to understand this character to see where he goes, what his state of mind is, state of body even. And that's why I love to read the books. And it's a pretty big mountain to climb. But I feel I'm almost on the top of the Mount Everest, and I guess the view from up there must be pretty amazing. Yeah,
Amy Ratcliffe 30:52
No, everything, it'll be great.
Marcus Rutherford 30:54
I don't know, you know, if I feel like if there would be a Wheel of Time University, and you would study there for a couple of years, after, you know, graduating, there still would be room for new interpretations and new ideas. And I feel like you could, you know, dive into the Wheel of Time for until eternity, probably you know
Madeleine Madden 31:17
Rafe's like Rafe's like I'm living that.
Rafe Judkins 31:20
Truly you can, I promise, I have now read those first three, I think, I think my first two copies of them both I've wore through to where I can't use them anymore. They're just like loose pages. You just read them and read them and read them. And Josha's right, like you can read them what feels like so many times and theyr'e so long and you still there's new stuff that you find there. And anytime I'm feeling stuck on any scene anywhere in the series, I'll just open up one of the books and start reading, even if it has nothing to do with the scene that you're working on. And you just sort of fall back into it.
Marcus Rutherford 31:54
Like today actually, like today. I figured something today, I worked on this show for two years. So I grew up in in Rotterdam. That's where I was born and raised. And then I lived there and I went to Amsterdam to study at drama school. So I lived like 23 years of my life in this area of cities. And then I took that plane to Prague and start this Wheel of Time adventure. I today I found out that, you know, the area with all these cities is actually called Randstad, which translates to Rand city. Like you know if you know if that isn't the pattern that I don't know, what is
Amy Ratcliffe 32:39
You can't write that. That's so good.
Rafe Judkins 32:43
dangerous for your ego. I grew up in Rand city. That's crazy.
Rosamund Pike 32:54
There are these signs that's really interesting.
Daniel Henney 32:56
Yeah.
Amy Ratcliffe 32:57
The wheel has woven. I'm curious, is there anyone on set that is like, I don't want to read the books I don't want to know where it's going?
Rafe Judkins 33:06
There are some people who get upset about spoilers like, like when we're in a production meeting, and I'm like, Okay, well, then this character is going to die at the in season three, and they're like, why did you do that, and it'll be something you didn't even really expect to be super invested in the books and the series. And like, you know, one of the second costume assistants is just like gasping when I say something that's coming, so I actually try to be careful because the people are fairly invested in the story, and then mostly sticking to like, where we are a series?
Amy Ratcliffe 33:40
Well Rafe I wanted to ask you, you know, the Wheel of Time, the world has so many, just beautiful cities made all the more kind of incredible because our main cast is from, from a very small village. What was it like bringing that to life? You know based on Robert Jordans, I mean, very good descriptions, but still words on a page to Wow, here's the White Tower
Rafe Judkins 33:58
You know, he had extremely thorough descriptions of a lot of places and rooms and cities the whole way through the series. And so we always would use those as the starting point for it and really, like try to our book researcher who's on the show has read the books 30 times, she would create a document for any place that we go to, with all the details that are listed, you know, in the books and passages from the books and it's like a, like, you get a little chunker on every every city that we go to is for everyone to read and know what the book said. And then I think from there, it's important that people, you know, put their own artistic bent into it, like we have this unbelievable production design team led by Ondřej Nekvasil. And you know, I think it's important that people really take what's there and then find a way to put something of themselves into it. And I think that when you have that happening, it creates something more beautiful that we all get to work and play in and if we were all just trying to recreate everything word for word from the book it would actually end up feel a little more stale and I think the Wheel of Time is such an emotional series like having the people making it emotionally invested in it is actually pretty important
Amy Ratcliffe 35:14
I can't wait and you know we've learned so much about season one and I've got to learn more you know we've all got somewhere about your your characters and and some of the world and I'm grateful for that but I know you're filming Season Two and I don't want to be greedy or get ahead of ourselves but is there anything you can you can share with everyone about Season Two today? And you're on the spot so you don't really have a choice?
Rafe Judkins 35:37
No, no. You know, we knew this was coming so we did we did talk to the powers that be a they just go crazy when the show hasn't even premiered yet to be talking about season two. But we're not just talking about it we are we've written it was shooting it. We're working on it right now. And we have some new cast members in the show too who are just amazing and everyone who's read the books knows how this world just keeps expanding and that the new characters that you need bring so much to the show so I have been given permission if they don't cut this from the thing but that we are going to meet someone in season two that I think a lot of book fans will be dying to see brought to life and that's Elaine Trakand daughter heir to Andor and she will be played by Ceara Coveney and I think genuinely every single person on the production from the first casting assistant that watched Ceara's tape through to me to costumes to hair to the cast as every person has met her. They have come to me and said afterwards. She is Elaine. That girl is Elaine like she I don't know I can never see anyone else being her now. So I think I'm really excited for the for the world to be able to get to see Ceara and what she's doing with the character of Elaine and season two. And I think on top of that I don't I don't get to say names for these two. But I get to talk about two other actors who are coming to the show. And that is Natasha O'Keeffe and Meera Syal and they're playing two of the most important characters in the whole book series. I imagine there will be 50 videos streaming online within minutes of this finishing trying to decide who Natasha and Meera are playing. But I think that they are also going to really deepen and, and bring to life the rest of the world of Wheel of Time.
Amy Ratcliffe 37:49
That's amazing. Thank you for giving us a peek into the future. I can't wait for season two.
Rafe Judkins 37:53
Or this just is on the floor after they're like No, you can't talk about that.
Amy Ratcliffe 37:59
That's the rest of this will make sense. That'll be great. No, I'm so excited for season two. I can't wait for season one first though. So I want to thank you all today for for hanging out for sharing some insight into the world and your characters. It's been so much fun and we really appreciate all of you who are watching and don't forget that the Wheel of Time premieres on Amazon Prime Video on November 19. Yay.
Rafe Judkins 38:24
