The highly anticipated return of Prime Video’s The Wheel of Time is finally here! To mark the occasion, Geeks of Color had the amazing opportunity to catch up with the cast of this beloved fantasy series and delve into the latest season.
Based on the renowned novels by author Robert Jordan, the show has steadily gained popularity since its debut in 2021. With each passing season, viewers have witnessed a significant evolution in the characters, bringing the series closer to the depth and complexity of its literary inspiration.

In the new season, Perrin finds himself in an intense fight scene involving an axe. We were curious to learn from Rutherford about his experience filming this epic moment.
Describing the intense axe attack from the books, Rutherford shared the extensive choreography and practical effects involved in bringing the scene to life. He emphasized the collaborative effort between the stunts team and actors to capture the essence of the action without relying on CGI.
