The well-known series ‘The Wheel of Time‘ is an ideal production for lovers of adventures in the medieval era, fantasy and drama, three of the most outstanding characteristics of ‘Game Of Thrones‘, which many fans have noticed and for which this new saga could be accused of plagiarism.
In recent days, one of the writers in charge of continuing the series’ story after creator Robert Jordan passed away in 2007 has shared his fears that the dangerous changes the plot has received for its second season would make the series to get accusations of copying ‘Game Of Thrones’.
For their part, fans of the series that premiered at the end of 2021 showed their disagreement and discontent when the changes to the story were announced through an interview done by ‘The Hollywood Reporter‘.
Although in the books, the original story, the character named Perrin had not married and had not accidentally murdered anyone, this changed in the new installment in which they show a slightly different figure from the one they know and in a way in which the series gets more similarities with the MAX series.
On the other hand, the Showrunner of the Prime Video production, Rafe Judkins, excused this radical change claiming that this would give a better adaptation to the character of Perrin, however it ended up being a negative point that led the series to be more similar to ‘Game Of Thrones’.
The followers of the series would not be very convinced of this explanation, which made ‘The Wheel of Time’ harshly accused of copying the plot and history of the acclaimed series ‘Game Of Thrones’, changing the essence of their own characters making them more wild.
