COLLIDER: What felt like the biggest difference between filming Season 1 and filming Season 2?
ZOE ROBINS: That’s a great question.
There’s a more mature tone, especially for the characters as well.

They’re more confident too.
What did you enjoy about getting to explore those dimensions?
Was there any special weaving choreography that the two of you got to learn for this season?

ROBINS: Kind of yes and no.
For Nynaeve, too, her channeling is very visceral, and it comes from deep inside of her.
Madeleine, what about you?

MADDEN: Whats so interesting about channeling is each woman’s relationship to channeling is very different.
But like Zoe said, it does also take it out of you.
The next day, you’re like, Oh, my shoulder is killing me!
I was like, I can’t even begin to tell you.
So, you’re definitely using parts of your body that you wouldn’t usually use.
Both Nynaeve and Egwene have their run-ins with Liandrin.
MADDEN: It’s funny because Kate is the complete opposite of Liandrin.
Shes so bubbly and so smiley and funny and cheeky and warm, and it’s just amazing.
She’s just a force to be reckoned with.
Working with Kate is just so electric.
She gives you so much, and really, you just have to take her in.
Giving it back is a little bit scary, but that’s what Egwene does.
She’s a lot braver than I am.
New episodes ofThe Wheel of TimeSeason 2 premiere Friday on Prime Video.
