It feels prefer it’s been 1,000,000 years since Amazon began doling out cryptic, miniscule teases of its lofty adaptation of Robert Jordan’s iconic fantasy saga, The Wheel of Time. Back at Comic-Con, we obtained a obscure launch date and a equally obscure poster, however now, with the present just some months away, we’re beginning to get a greater image of it.

Quite actually, in that in the present day Entertainment Weekly revealed 4 new photos that give us our first precise take a look at the collection.

Starring Rosamund Pike as Moiraine Damodred, a robust magic consumer often known as a member of the Aes Sedai—an order of all-female magic customers, after a cataclysmic corruption rendered most males incapable of utilizing the magical energies of the One Power—the collection follows Moiraine and her allies as she tracks down Josha Stradowski’s Rand al’Thor, who seems to be a prophecised champion of sunshine towards the primordial cosmic evil often known as the Dark One.

That’s always felt to me like the missing piece of the fantasy-literature landscape that hasn’t been brought to TV or film yet.”

As effectively as glimpses of Moiraine and the band of refugees she saves from an assault on the village of Two Rivers—amongst them Rand al’Thor, who Moiraine doesn’t but realize is the prophecized champion she’s been looking for—the pictures additionally give followers some fascinating appears to be like at characters like Álvaro Morte’s Logain, a uncommon man nonetheless able to utilizing the One Power, in addition to the sinister shadow metropolis of Shadar Logoth, the place Moiraine is hunted by a mysterious entity often known as Mashadar.
