Mat Cauthon will be played by Barney Harris. He has been in several recent movies such as: All Roads Lead to Rome, and Billionaire Boys Club. I am excited to see how he does in the role.

Perrin will be played by Marcus Rudda. I am particularly excited for his character working along based on how the first few books in the series play out. We wish you the best Marcus!

Finally Rand will be played by Josh Stradowski. He has was in the recent movie Just Friends that came out in 2018. We are really excited to see how he grows as a character throughout the series.
It’s very cool that many of these actors that have signed on for the show are early on in their career. Not only does this affirm that the writers and casting are making sure the ages of the characters are being honored, but that they are not bringing on many distracting big names to the show.
