“The Wheel of Time” TV series finally has a premiere month (not date, just yet) from Amazon. But before the first season debuts in November, showrunner Rafe Judkins is already hard at work on Season 2 — and looking ahead to six more seasons.
During a virtual panel presented by Amazon at Comic-Con@Home on Friday, Judkins said he plotted out eight seasons total of his Rosmund Pike-led TV adaptation of Robert Jordan’s 14-novel fantasy series.
“I feel like my danger will never be running out of books,” he said, laughing. “I think it’s more, the challenge that we face is how do you tell this story the most cohesively and the most coherently in what is a reasonable number of seasons in television? So it’s something I really set out to do right from the beginning.
