Executive producer Rafe Judkins recently shared new details about season 3 of The Wheel of Time, the popular fantasy series based on Robert Jordan's best-selling books. The show, which premiered on Prime Video in November 2021, has just finished its second season, receiving praise from critics and leaving audiences shocked with unexpected character deaths.
During a special panel at New York Comic Con, held on Saturday, October 14, as part of Prime Video Presents: The Power of Prime, Judkins discussed what fans can expect in the upcoming season. With the show already renewed, Judkins revealed that season 3 will primarily focus on the events of Book Four, while also introducing more members of the Forsaken. Additionally, the season will delve into the concept of Dreamwalking, where characters can enter the dreams of others. Here is what Judkins had to say:
"I am excited to explore the captivating storylines from Book Four in the upcoming season of The Wheel of Time. We will be introducing new members of the Forsaken and diving into the intriguing world of Dreamwalking. Fans can expect an exhilarating and immersive experience in season 3."
"We are excited to have the opportunity to heavily focus on Book Four this season, as it is considered one of the strongest books in the entire series. It's great to dedicate an entire season to it and delve deeply into its storyline."
"We recognized the immense significance of the Forsaken in the books and wanted to bring them to the forefront earlier in season two than they are originally presented. There has been much discussion online about the Forsaken and potential exclusions from the show, but I can confirm that we have cast and included the set of Forsaken characters that have not been seen on the show so far."
How The New Details (& Locations) Impact Wheel of Time Season 3
In The Wheel of Time world, one of the fascinating aspects we have the opportunity to delve into is the culture of these extraordinary warriors. We are able to personally engage with them, witnessing their origins firsthand. Furthermore, we embark on a journey with our characters as they venture into the realm of dreams and the art of dreamwalking. This particular endeavor is especially exciting in season three, as it serves as a distinctive feature of the Wheel of Time series, setting it apart from other book series. Thus, our exploration of this captivating world unfolds throughout season three.
While Judkins does not explicitly confirm the specific storylines that will be incorporated into The Wheel of Time season 3, there are hints based on a synopsis of the fourth book called The Shadow Rising. These hints revolve around the growing strength of The Forsaken. In order for Rand al'Thor to combat them, he must first attain mastery over the male aspect of the True Source. This power, tainted by the Dark One, possesses the ability to drive men into madness, and potentially holds the key to either salvation or damnation for the world.

During the discussion, Judkins mentioned the exploration of various locations in the upcoming episodes. Fans can expect to see the Two Rivers, as well as fan-favorite cities like Tanchico and Rhuidean, all appearing on-screen for the first time. Additionally, Wheel of Time season 3 will take viewers to the Aiel Waste, delving into the Aiel culture, and further exploring the politics of the Aes Sedai at the White Tower. Other cultures will also showcase new versions of channeling, and the famous Sea Folk, renowned for their seafaring and trading, will be introduced.
The fourth book of the Wheel of Time series also explores the concept of Dreamwalking. In the original material, Skilled Dreamwalkers have the ability to enter the dreams of individuals, although it comes with inherent dangers. Additionally, they can involuntarily be pulled into others' dreams, which presents a potential risk but offers the prospect of creating visually striking scenes in the Prime Video adaptation of this popular series.
