Despite getting better and better with each season, Prime Video ultimately cancelled The Wheel of Time — and we're still angry over it.

There is a transgender aes sedai in the show. Also there is a forsaken that gets put in the opposite gender body in the books. I’d say that’s some nuance.

There is a transgender aes sedai in the show.

Really? I completely missed that. In-character-trans, or real-world-trans-in-character-not-discussed?

Real world trans. Lelaine Akashi is played by Rebecca Root. She’s the keeper of the chronicles in the past when the aes sedai choose Siuan as the amyrlin seat.

That explains why I missed it. I have no idea who she is, but I do like it!
