  • The Dragon Reborn, Rand al’Thor (Josha Stradowski), who is now trying to survive independently to protect his friends after last season’s face-off against the Dark One, and Selene (Natasha O’Keeffe), an innkeeper from Cairhien, with whom he has made a connection.
  • Nynaeve al’Meara (Zoë Robins), the strong-willed Wisdom from Two Rivers, and ruthless Liandrin Guirale (Kate Fleetwood), an Aes Sedai of the Red Ajah.
  • Aes Sedai-in-training Egwene al’Vere (Madeleine Madden) and her White Tower classmate, new character Elayne Trakand (Ceara Coveney), the daughter heir of Andor, who is beginning her magical journey.
  • Perrin Aybara (Marcus Rutherford), who this season will struggle with his identity outside of Two Rivers, and newcomer Aviendha (Ayoola Smart), a Maiden of the Spear from Aiel.
  • Mat Cauthon (Donal Finn), who will endure a journey of self-discovery this season, and bartender Min Farshaw (Kae Alexander), who has the extraordinary ability to see glimpses of the Pattern that show her the future.
  • Ishamael (Fares Fares), one of the Forsaken and the human embodiment of the Dark One’s evil, and, new for season two, High Lady Suroth (Karima McAdams), an imposing Seanchan noblewoman from a distant land.

Prime Video announced that Emmy Award-winning and Academy Award-nominated actress Shohreh Aghdashloo has joined the cast of The Wheel of Time for the series’ upcoming third season, which will premiere globally March 13, 2025 on Prime Video. The series is co-produced by Sony Pictures Television and Amazon MGM Studios.

Aghdashloo joins series star Rosamund Pike in portraying one of the powerful Aes Sedai - a group of women with the ability to channel the One Power who are part of an elite sisterhood. She will be playing ‘Elaida do Avriny a’Roihan ,’ a highly anticipated character from Robert Jordan’s eponymous and epic fantasy book series upon which the show is based. Elaida is a ruthlessly powerful Aes Sedai of the Red Ajah, as proficient in politicking as she is in channeling. She has a deep history with Moiraine (Pike) and Siuan (Sophie Okonedo), and scores to settle with both of them when she returns to the White Tower. Elaida is someone who believes in ends over means, and is willing to do anything to achieve what she envisions to be the greater good.

Shohreh Aghdashloo is an Emmy Award-winning and Academy Award-nominated actress renowned for her powerful and nuanced performances. Born in Tehran, she began her career on the Iranian stage before gaining recognition in films like "The Chess Game of the Wind." After relocating to the United States, she achieved critical acclaim for her role in "House of Sand and Fog" (2003), which earned her an Oscar nomination, making history as the first Iranian actress to do so.

Aghdashloo's diverse career spans film, television, and theatre. She has delivered memorable performances in films like "The Nativity Story," "The Stoning of Soraya M." (for which she won a Satellite Award), and "The Lake House," and won an Emmy for her portrayal of Sajida Talfah in the miniseries "House of Saddam." Her recent work includes voice acting in the Netflix film "Damsel" and the video game "Assassin's Creed Mirage," and a role in the animated series "Arcane." On television, she is known for her appearances in "24," "The Expanse" (as Chrisjen Avasarala), and "The Punisher."

Aghdashloo's talent extends beyond the screen, with stage credits including "House of Bernarda Alba" and voice work in video games like "Mass Effect" and "Destiny." She is also a celebrated audiobook narrator and the author of the memoir "The Alley of Love and Yellow Jasmines." In recognition of her artistic achievements and commitment to social justice, she was awarded the Ellis Island Medal of Honor in 2015.

Prime Video released ten first-look images for The Wheel of Time’s upcoming third season, which will debut globally on March 13, 2025. This release is part of #WOTWednesdays, a fan-favorite weekly reveal of series news and assets leading up to the season premiere. The Wheel of Time is co-produced by Sony Pictures Television and Amazon MGM Studios, and is based on Robert Jordan’s best-selling and epic fantasy book series of the same name.

In The Wheel of Time, a humble farm boy, Rand al’Thor, learns he is The Dragon Reborn—a dangerous figure from history destined to save the world … or break it. The Wheel of Time turns, and the Last Battle approaches.

After defeating Ishamael, one of the most powerful of the Forsaken, at the end of Season Two, Rand reunites with his friends in the city of Falme and is declared the Dragon Reborn. But in Season Three, the threats against the Light are multiplying: the White Tower stands divided, the Black Ajah run free, old enemies return to the Two Rivers, and the remaining Forsaken are in hot pursuit of the Dragon… including Lanfear, whose relationship with Rand will mark a crucial choice between Light and Dark for them both. As the ties to his past begin to unravel, and his corrupted power grows stronger, Rand becomes increasingly unrecognizable to his closest allies, Moiraine and Egwene. These powerful women, who started the series as teacher and student, must now work together to prevent the Dragon from turning to the Dark…no matter the cost.
