The Wheel Of Time Season 2 Filming, Release, and Airing Schedule
Amazon Prime Video confirmed a renewal six months before the show’s premiere in November 2021. Vernon Sanders, Amazon Studios’ Head of Global TV, spoke with TVLine just before the first finale aired on the reasons for the early announcement:
“As the episodes came in and we saw the quality of the job, and as we continued to work, we became more confident to speak with [showrunner] Rafe [Judkins], we became more and more impressed about where future seasons might go, we felt pretty sure that we had something that could go for a long time for us.”
Moreover, filming for season 2 began as early as July 19, 2021. However, due to COVID-19 restrictions, the filming was concluded late by February 2022.

What to Expect in Wheel of Time Season 2
Season 1 of the Wheel of Time shocked viewers when it took off into different tangents from the book. In Season 1, an enigmatic sorceress named Moiraine comes across Rand, Egwene, Perrin, Nynaeve, and Mat, arising on their adventurous journey to figure out who in their group is the Dragon Reborn, a person with power who can save or destroy the world. Season 1 ends with Rand faking his death and hiding the truth from everyone except from Moiraine.
The Wheel of Time Season 2 is set to cover the second and third books, The Great Hunt and The Dragon Reborn, respectively. Hence, we can expect a possible quest to get the Horn of Valere by Rand, Perrin, and Mat. Meanwhile, Moiraine will declare who the actual Dragon Reborn is, sending the Chosen one to Tear to prove themselves.
