As its second season approaches, Prime Video dropped a new featurette for ‘The Wheel of Time’ that reveals a new threat that the protagonists are going to have to face. The Trollocs are arriving and Amazon Studios released a new video that highlights how they will impact the magical world under the direction of the Dark One.
“The Trollocs are here,” Amazon said in a press release. “Prime Video is pulling back the curtain on these menacing monsters from Amazon Original series, The Wheel of Time. “These fearsome foot soldiers of the Dark One’s army were first introduced in ‘The Eye of the World,’ the first novel in Robert Jordan’s best-selling Wheel of Time book series. Insatiable and bloodthirsty killing machines who exist to do the bidding of the Dark One and his key lieutenants, the Trollocs are genetically engineered super-soldiers who are a terrifying fusion of human and animal, and can take the shape of boars, bears, hawks, and other aggressive creatures.”
You can watch the featurette on the official Twitter:

“The new behind-the-scenes featurette, “Terror of the Trollocs,” which was released today by Prime Video, features series star and co-executive producer Rosamund Pike, executive producer and showrunner Rafe Judkins, executive producer Mike Weber, executive producer and writer Justine Juel Gillmer, and makeup effects designer Nick Dudman in previously recorded interviews, as they unveil some of the meticulous artistry and technology that have birthed these brutal beasts, which are a convergence of practical prosthetics and cutting-edge visual effects. As one observation in the piece relates, the grisly Trollocs are ‘nightmare fuel,'” Amazon continued.
‘The Wheel of Time’ is based on a novel series by the same name from author Robert Jordan. The first book was released in 1990 under the title ‘The Eye of the World’ and the second novel is ‘The Great Hunt,’ released in 1990.
