To be honest, I don't think I've ever looked at the WoT map and compared it to the world map. So this wouldn't have occurred to me :lol
Hence the surprise.
I did not realise the Seanchan accents were Texan :blink
And not all bad guys have British accents :look Our accent is occasionally used for good guys too :lol
I love the choice for Siuan. Sophie Okonedo is a great actress! :joy
I haven't heard of Kae Alexander before, but she looks like she'll be a good Min! :D
Oh and looking at Twitter Kate Fleetwood has announced she's been cast as Liandrin.
She's holding a script like Jennifer is in her announcement, so looks legit.
They've added 3 more to the cast via Instagram
Jennifer Cheon Garcia Warn
Maria doyle Kennedy
Daryl McCormack
No announcement on who they're cast as but I'm hoping Maria is Siuan and Jennifer is Leane!
Edit: Actually I hope Maria is Verin
