So far, Amazon has not announced additional seasons for the fantasy series, but theoretically it might last for many more years, given the mountain of original material in Robert Jordan’s novels. Recently The wheel of time Press Day, IO9 asked Showrunner Rafe Judkins if he would already know how the show would end.
“I always have the end game in mind,” he said. “We are always planning and planning how we want to do everything we have. You will see how things fall into this season [hints at our] Plans for the top of the fourth or fifth season season. So, we are always approaching him from the writer’s room as if we were going to succeed until the end of this thing and that we would like to tell that story. I don’t think many shows get the advantage in so many seasons, but I think Amazon is an amazing network in the sense, from the beginning on this, they really intended to tell the whole story. And so, I hope that even in the current world we have to tell the whole story of The wheel of time. “
Considering that Jordan’s series includes 14 novels, plus a handful of related works, Jordan (who passed away in 2007) and later co -author Brandon Sanderson, the first season The wheel of time He was very careful to explain Lore and the plot of points to alleviate new fans into his complex fantasy world. Judkins said that maintaining a balance between books and what was created for the screen is one of the careful topics in the room of the show writers.
“While we are in production and even the post, you really have to make a show for both audiences. We know that there is a huge audience for this show that has never read books before, and there is a huge audience that has, like me, a deep emotional connection With these books and those characters who want to see the life brought to this for the first time, “Judkins said. “So, we always have in our minds of balance of what we do for these two audiences, but we never sacrifice one or the other. It is really important that we tell the books from books the best we can in this medium in which we are and take care of This is first and foremost a great TV show. “
One of those The wheel of time The characters that fans are excited when seeing more live is Lanfear, played by Natasha O’Keeffe.

Yes, she knows what she wants to get, but in terms of relationship and how she gets what she wants and what she wants with Random, it’s confusing. That’s actually – she’s clashed herself. But the truth, I think that is a hungry forces. “
Judkins added, “Always it is! I think it’s one of the things that is nice to her, in fact: she is sure to be interested in Rand and what is evolving with the random, but her end goals are for herself, and they have always been.”
