Recently, Prime Video treated fans of The Wheel of Time to an exclusive sneak peak of the first 11 minutes of the upcoming season. This “bonkers” scene featured a number of new faces, and a few familiar ones. As the excitement builds towards the premiere of the new season, some of these actors and their agencies confirmed their participation and, in some cases, their roles. Here’s a run down of a few new Aes Sedai we meet in Season 3:

 

Diêm Camille

WotSeries previously reported Diêm’s involvement and that reporting is now confirmed by a recent update to her CV, and social media posts by the actor and her agency. Her CV lists her Wheel of Time credit as Tsutama Rath, whom we know to be a Sitter of the Red Ajah from the episode 1 cold open.

Diêm Camille is a writer and actor born in Abidjan, Ivory Coast who moved to Denmark permanently when she was 5. Her first acting role was in the Danish television series Warrior, and has gone on to numerous other credits, most recently the television series Alex Rider and short film No Place for a Kid. She will appear in Alien: Earth later this year (alongside Wheel of Time alum, Sandra Yi Sencindiver).

Clare Dunne

We first meet Clare Dunne in episode one alongside Diêm Camille as a Red Ajah Aes Sedai. Her name was not revealed in the cold open sneak peak, however, an article in SFX Magazine credited her as Galina in a photo from season 3. Dunne is from Dublin, Ireland, and graduated from the Royal Welsh College of Music & Drama, Cardiff, in 2009. She has had numerous stage roles at the Abbey Theatre and the National Theatre. In 2000, she starred in Herself, a movie she also co-wrote. She was nominated for several awards for her work on the movie as both an actress and a screenwriter. Dunne also starred in the television series Kin, created by The Wheel of Time director and executive producer, Ciaran Donnelly. When Kin debuted in 2021, Dunne became one of the most recognizable stars on Irish television. Most recently, Dunne can be seen in the films Small Things Like These and Kathleen Is Here.

Zenobia Kloppers

Zenobia Kloppers is a Namibian-South African actress, writer, director, singer, voice artist, and producer. She is best known for her role as Fiela in the critically acclaimed 2019 film, Fiela’s Child. For her work in that film, she earned the Best Actress Award at the 2020 South African Independent Film Festival, and nominations for Best Actress at the 2020 Africa Movie Academy Awards, 2020 South African Film and Television Awards, and the 2019 kykNET Silwerskermfees (one of the only Afrikaans film festivals in the world.) Kloppers holds credentials from both Stellenbosch University and University of Cape Town.

Kloppers is a long time fan of The Wheel of Time and has been interacting with fans since her reveal in the season 3 sneak peek.

Mi Hae Lee

Did you feel the earth shake as fans screamed  “F-cking Chesmal Emry”, during the shredding scene at the start of 301? That is because we got a glimpse of the infamous Chesmal Emry of the Yellow Ajah. Thanks to a CV update, we can confirm that Mi Hae Lee, a German-Korean actress, portrays Chesmal in season 3.  While you wait to see her in season 3, you can catch her in the psychological thriller TV series, Vienna Blood.

Mi Hae Lee also shared a few screengrabs of her appearances in the episode on Instagram.

I love books of all kinds and especially Wheel of Time (I even have a tattoo!) I also love video games and building community online. Blue/Brown ajah (don’t make me choose) and Spoiler Gaidin for the show-only crowd. Find me @feelinmyshelf.bsky.social
