Jeff Bridges as Lews Therin
Lews Therin Telamon was known as the Dragon during the War of Power, a devastating global conflict that marked the beginning of the end of a utopian society that existed long before the events of the first book. The Dragon is the title for the champion of the Light against the Dark One. He is always the reincarnation of a single particular soul.
Lews Therin was the leader of the forces of Light and was well respected all over the world. He was as strong in the Power as a man could be, but he perished when male Aes Sedai destroyed the world in the Age of Legends. He’s remembered as a tall man with brown hair that was turning white, and dark eyes full of sadness.
Who else could it be!?
The Dude, Jeff Bridges, is no stranger to fantasy. He recently gained some experience in the movie Seventh Son. Honestly, it’s an awful film, but he played this fella Master Gregory, the last of a knightly order who have long defended mankind against supernatural threats. Bridges was great in it, and fits the genre better than you’d think.
