But I'm even more excited to see how they try to explain away Lanfear.
Given how poorly the show has done things in general and that the following describes Lanfear,
She was quite tall, a little more than a hand shorter than Rand al'Thor, and had smooth, ivory-pale skin with long black hair and black eyes
We can assume that first of all her appearance will not match that in the slightest. And secondly as this is how her personality is described,
her defining feature was an insatiable lust for power.
As well as,
Many of those who she interacted with, including virtually all of the other Forsaken, have expressed the sentiment that she had a vastly overinflated opinion of herself.
In addition to
She was proud, arrogant, presumptuous, and self-absorbed, actively betraying both her allies and her master in order to gain more power for herself.
And summed up with
She appears to have had a particularly strong rivalry with Ishamael, the most powerful and most favored of the Forsaken, though the rivalry appeared to have been almost completely one-sided on her part. She was also extremely manipulative, and had absolutely no qualms about lying to, or using, virtually anyone to get what she wanted. Additionally, she appeared to have no loyalties except to herself.
We can expect a stronk and independent woman who don't need no man because she's totally awesome and not in fact a walking vortex of neuroticism that will use anyone and everyone because to her it's "all about me!".
Nuance is lost in live action adaptations and this show will just butcher every character of note for the woke agenda.
Much more than that, Lanfear is an obsessive with a classic case of Borderline Personality Disorder. She is incapable of regulating her own emotions and does everything by extremes. She is also incapable of feeling love or compassion for anyone other than herself, and effectively perceives the rest of the world and everyone in it as a reflection of her own desires.
She doesn't love Lews Therin Telamon: she loves the idea of him, and of the power that he wields. She envisions a future with him and her together, the most powerful male and female channellers using the most powerful sa'angreal ever created to magnify their power, destroying the Dark One and the Creator and ruling over the world as the new gods.
This is why she reacts so badly when Lews Therin rejects her, not once, but twice. She is obsessed with the idea of the power that she thinks he can provide her with, and she can't get it from anywhere else, and she can't get over his rejection of her because she can't imagine that anyone wouldn't want that kind of power.
Modern Hollywood could never portray that character faithfully, because she is too much like them. Lanfear is Hillary Clinton with superpowers, the kind of person who would burn down the whole world if she got to be queen of the ashes. None of the scriptwriters for this show possess enough self-awareness to be able to conceive of such a character, even though, being where they are, they're surrounded by exactly that personality type.
