The horseriding was particularly important because you’re not actually having to master it, but you’ve got connect with your horse. I thought I was a relatively fit person but, no.īut it was amazing, it was such an important part of finding our characters’ physicality, how they move, how they’ve walked their entire lives. We’d do an hour of horse riding and three hours of stunt training every day, five days a week for a month. We were over there for a month before we started shooting – horse riding lessons, stunt training.

What was the stunt training like in general? They told me I only have to do one but I said I would like to do it again, a better one where my dress is not coming up over my head.

It’s a huge part of my character and also a big part for me personally. I said to our wonderful director, Uta, ‘It would kill me to know that somebody else has done this and not me. She jumped off first and everyone made sure it was all safe. One of the initiations for your character is she’s pushed off a really high cliff and into a river. So, for me, I understand the importance of a moment like that for my character. In episode one, Egwene goes through her own ceremonial initiation into the women’s circle. In particular, there’s the importance of ceremony and the different stages of initiation that our people go through, that’s something we also see in The Wheel of Time. I’ve been raised by incredibly strong women, and I have a lot of strong women in my life. Women are really at the forefront of conversations, leadership and authority. And that’s something we really see in The Wheel of Time world. I’ve been raised in a very strong matriarchal family and that’s a big part of our culture as well. My heritage of being an Aboriginal woman. What else of your own experiences did you bring to the character that maybe wasn’t originally in the script? Madeleine Madden with her The Wheel of Time co-stars. One of the candidates is Egwene, a young woman who finds herself thrust into a larger-than-life adventure, which is not dissimilar to the experiences of Australian actor Madeleine Madden who was cast in the role and found herself in Prague a mere two weeks later, embarking on the biggest project she’s ever been involved in.
