Every actor cast in The Wheel of Time show, and who they’re playing

Kae Alexander as Min

Rand and friends run across Min, a young woman with the mysterious ability to foretell the future, pretty early in their journey, and she’ll turn up regularly ever after. Game of Thrones fans may recognize British actor Kae Alexander as the woman who played Leaf, one of the Children of the Forest.

Michael McElhatton as Tam al’Thor

Tam is Rand’s father, and raises him on a farm near the village of Emond’s Field. He’s shown to be a skilled warrior with both a sword and a bow.

McElhatton has a long career, but Game of Thrones fans will probably recognize him as the ice-blooded Roose Bolton. Tam’s much nicer.

Alvaro Morte as Logaine

Logaine is the rare man who can channel, meaning he can tap into the One Power and use it to perform feats of magic. Such men are considered very dangerous, especially if, like Logaine, they claim to be the Dragon Reborn. Many believe that a real messiah is coming, but a false one can plunge the world into war and chaos.

Alvaro Morte is a Spanish actor who’s been working in film and television for years, but his best known role is as the Professor on the Netflix series Money Heist.

Hammed Animashaun as Loial

Loial is a member of a human-like species known as Ogier, who live in their own communities and are famously good builders. Like many Ogier, Loial is committed to peace and has a passion for obtaining knowledge. Unlike many, he’s also struck with a case of wanderlust, which brings him into our story.

Animashaun has done Shakespeare, opera, and appeared on shows like Black Mirror.

Alexandre Willaume as Thom Merrilin

Thom is a traveling performer known as a “gleeman.” He can juggle, somersault and sing, but he’s also knowledgeable on a wide range of topics.

Willaume, meanwhile, is known for roles in shows like The Last Kingdom and movies like Tomb Raider.

Johann Myers as Padan Fain

Padan Fain is a peddler, traveling from town to town, bartering and spreading news about world events. His role in the story may be bigger than it might seem. For Myers’ part, he’s appeared in series like Luther and Black Mirror.
