Josha Stradowski and Marcus Rutherford star with Rosamund Pike in the PrimeVideo adaptation of The Wheel of Time. The actors were nervous about embarking on the large-scale production with a top-notch actor like Pike but were comforted knowing the veteran also had her worries since it was her first fantasy adventure role based on the books by Robert Jordan.
The Wheel of Time is now streaming on Prime Video.
