The Wheel weaves as the Wheel wills, and soon it will finally be time for The Wheel of Time to premiere on Prime Video. Amazon’s long-awaited adaptation of Robert Jordan’s fantasy series attempts to make the magic come to life like never before. Rosamund Pike stars as Moiraine, Daniel Henney as her faithful Warder Lan, and an ensemble cast full of rising stars and iconic character actors fills out the vast cast of characters in The Wheel of Time world. So when can you finally jump into this wild, wondrous world?
The Wheel of Time tells the story of five young men and women who find their lives turned upside down when an Aes Sedai (aka a woman who can channel the One Power and wield magic) turns up in their small town, the Two Rivers. Moiraine is there because she believes the most powerful One Power-wielder in history ā€” the Dragon ā€” has been reincarnated in one of these five youths. As improbable as it seems, Egwene (Madeleine Madden), Mat (Barney Harris), Rand (Josha Stradowski), Perrin (Marcus Rutherford), and Nyneave (ZoĆ« Robins) have no choice but to follow Moiraine on a wild journey to the Aes Sedai seat in Tar Valon.
The Wheel of Time is often called the American Lord of the Rings, and like Tolkein’s work, basks in complex world-building, hero’s quests, and the eternal struggle between the dark and the light. Amazon’s adaptation tries its best to juggle the vast world of Robert Jordan’s books while not forgetting the quiet moments between characters that really make the series sing.
So when can you watch The Wheel of Time? Here’s everything you need to know about when and where and how to watch The Wheel of Time on Prime Video…
