Amazon Prime Video’s new fantasy series The Wheel of Time is quickly approaching and while it remains to be seen how it’ll fare with audiences, the show’s EP is hopeful that it’ll be around for the long run.
Speaking to Deadline in a recent interview, EP Rafe Judkins said that he’s hoping to have The Wheel of Time on our screens for 8 seasons, and had the following to say about his new project:
“I think Wheel of Time lends itself better to a television series. That’s why I think now is the right moment for it to finally exist because people who know that books know it’s just a story about the characters and the journeys each of them is on.
The amount you’d have to compress it to turn it into a series of movies is too much. It would take away the heart of what’s good about it.”
Works for us!
