Prime Video’s upcoming TV adaptation of Rebecca Yarros’ bestselling fantasy-romance novel “Fourth Wing” has cast Esther McGregor as Violet Sorrengail and Emilio Sakraya as Xaden Riorson. The series will follow the story from the novels, translating the book’s central characters and premise for television.
Deadline and Variety both report the casting news as the production moves forward, with Deadline adding that the show is developed by showrunner and executive producer Meredith Averill. The outlets describe the leads in terms of their previous screen work, positioning McGregor and Sakraya as the series’ primary stars. Amazon reportedly declined to comment, and the reports focus mainly on who is joining the cast rather than offering further plot or production details.
Overall, the sources align on the same two lead roles and the platform—Prime Video—while differing slightly in emphasis, such as where each actor’s prior credits are highlighted and the degree of information about the creative team beyond Averill.
