She'd make a good Faile..the Shae character is the jealous type.

Ok I haven't seen this all together in one place anywhere, so I've assembled a list of all the actors coming up for season two:

Confirmed roles:

Ayoola Smart - Aviendha
Ceara Coveney - Elayne Trakand
Salle Salee - Elsa Treehill (speculation: combined Else and Nicola)
You-ri Yamanaka - "Min's Aunt"
Haruka Karoda - "Min's Aunt"
Melissa James - Elnore (Nynaeve's mother)
Arnas Fedaravicius - Masema
Marie-France Alvarez - Celestin (Yellow sister from Winter's Heart)
Gary Beadle - Elyas Machera
Julian Lewis Jones - Bayle Domon (and he has a strong Welsh accent)
Katie Leung - Yassica Cellaech ("ancient" Brown sister from Towers of Midnight)
Raquel Cipriano - "novice"
Elena Fokina - "sul'dam"
Daniel Francis - High Lord Turak

Confirmed actors, unconfirmed roles:

Meera Syal
Natasha O'Keefe
Will Tudor - speculation is he's Barthanes
Natasha Jayahendry
Laura Crowhurst
Laia Costa - "Magdalena," probably a code name
Steward Kenneth Moore - "rides a black horse in cold midnight air"
Xelia Mendes-Jones - "recurring"
Jay Duffy - Dain, Gawyn, or Galad
Daraggh O'Toole - "Yann," not a character that exists in the books
Lubna Kerr - "tiny" role but she was "treated like a queen"

Unconfirmed actors:

Jessica Boone - (seen with one half of her head shaved)
Karima McAdams - (matches a body double of a possible Selene)
Ragga Ragnars
Adrian Bouchet
Maja Simonsen
Rema Te Wiata - (she posted a picture posing with an owl, leading some to speculate she might be Verin)
Bentley Kalu - strong background in martial arts

all the above have been spotted at known filming locations, or nearby associating with known Wheel of Time production members, and their CVs indicate they are actors/performers, not crew.

For Hayley Mills, not yet. It's an undisclosed character.

Best bet is either Elaida or Cadsuane.
I already made this joke on Discord, but I really like it so I’ll make it here too: why not Vandene/Adeleas?

Rima Te Wiata was just cast as Sheriam

I actually know some of her work. She narrated season 2 of Within the Wires (a Night Vale adjacent fiction podcast. I highly recommend.). She has a very Mistress of Novices voice. I can also easily picture her easily put into costume for her. I'm excited for this one!

I saw the Verin news and I like her look! She'll bring some pizzazz to a character I always saw as frumpy in my mind

I've been hearing Verin compared physically to Meriweather, the blue fairy in sleeping beauty, lately.
