The Wheel of Time has taken its final spin.

DECIDER reports that Prime Video has canceled the series. According to Deadline, the series was axed for financial reasons, despite the fact that the executives at the streaming service appreciate the series “creatively.” The outlet mentions that Prime Video, alongside Sony Pictures Television, which co-produces the series, will continue to back The Wheel of Time Season’s bid for the Emmys.

The Prime Video adaptation of Robert Jordan’s Wheel of Time book series features a cast that includes Rosamund Pike—as both a star and an executive producer—alongside Daniel Henney, Josha Stradowski, Natasha O’Keeffe, Zoë Robins, Sophie Okonedo, Marcus Rutherford, Dónal Finn, Ceara Coveney, Kate Fleetwood, Ayoola Smart, Kae Alexander, Priyanka Bose, Hammed Animashaun, and others.

March marked the premiere of the third and concluding season, which DECIDER’s Meghan O’Keefe praised as the series’ “most cinematic season” in her review of The Wheel of Time Season 3. She commended the latest season for having a lineup of “incredible actors” and a “confidence” in its storytelling that was “incredible to behold”—up until the very end.

“Everything is great in The Wheel of Time Season 3 up until the end,” she wrote. “After the highs of the rest of the season, The Wheel of Time Season 3 Episode 8 feels like a slumping afterthought. The conclusions to most of the major storylines feels rushed. The show’s vast scope quickly contracts. Massive changes are made from the books to streamline potential future seasons and they leave tragically bitter aftertastes.”

In an interview with DECIDER ahead of The Wheel of Time‘s Season 3 release, Pike shared that she is “very proud” of how women can see themselves in the Aes Sedai.

“Robert Jordan wrote this fantasy series that people, namely women, who had never previously been able to read themselves into fantasy so easily, suddenly had role models everywhere in this series,” she continued.

Pike acknowledged that “Jordan wrote a very, very modern tale, which we know.”

“But I think the way the show’s been cast and what we’ve looked for in the diversity and even, you know, on all fronts — whether it’s in terms of ability or neurodiversity or race — we’ve really wanted to be inclusive in the Aes Sedai because power is everywhere. I think that’s the message we want to set forth. That power is — beauty, yes — but also power is another thing that isn’t governed by one particular look.”

The Wheel of Time Seasons 1-3 are streaming on Prime Video.
