In the highly anticipated new season, the four actors will portray the royal family of the kingdom of Andor. Andor is the largest, most populous, and most influential country within the heart of the Westlands, the fictional land depicted in Robert Jordan’s best-selling and epic fantasy book series, The Wheel of Time, upon which the television series is based.

Acclaimed award-winning actress Olivia Williams portrays ‘Morgase Trakand,’ the Queen of Andor. Morgase did not inherit her throne. Rather, when the succession was left without an heir, she waged a brutal war against a half-dozen noble rivals, and thanks to her political savvy and utter ruthlessness, she won. She has sworn ever since to shield her daughter and heir, Elayne, from ever having to endure what she did… and do what she did. But far from being a tyrant, Morgase has become one of the best queens Andor has ever known.

Luke Fetherston, know for Doctor Who and Big Mood is ‘Lord Galad’ of House Trakand. A royal prince of Andor and brother to Gawyn and Elayne, Galad is a skilled fighter, famously handsome, and protective of his younger sister. Callum Kerr, know for Monarch plays ‘Lord Gawyn’ of House Trakand. Gawyn is a royal prince of Andor, and older brother to Galad and Elayne. Despite being the first born, he is not the heir to the throne. Andor is a matriarchy, and so the role of heir falls to his younger sister, Elayne.

For his part, Nuno Lopes plays the role of ‘Lord Gaebril,’ Queen Morgase’s male consort. Both her lover and adviser, he assists in overseeing matters political and military. Andor is a matriarchal society, and so his power and influence, though vast, are always second to that of his Queen, to whom his loyalties and services are sworn.

The Wheel of Time Season 3 will premiere globally March 13, 2025 on Prime Video.

I’m passionate about strong women, complex characters and a ship that unites the two, but above all, I love writing about them and unraveling the intricacies behind each character. The need to put those thoughts into words was what led me to become a critic. The time as a professional one taught me that writing is an art and, therefore, it never stops changing and offering new experiences.
