So it came as no surprise to see Rosamund Pike looked effortlessly chic as she headed to the Today Show studios in New York on Friday. .

The actress, 42, seemed in high spirits as she continued the promotional trail for her feminist fantasy series, The Wheel Of Time.

So it came as no surprise to see Rosamund Pike looked effortlessly chic as she headed to the Today Show studios in New York on Friday.

Rosamund's outing came after it was revealed that she had to go to the hospital after slicing her hand open while filming The Wheel Of Time.

Rosamund plays Moiraine in the six-part fantasy-drama - which has been dubbed Amazon Prime's answer to Game of Thrones - based on the Robert Jordan novels of the same name. .

Meanwhile, Rosamund told Radio Times of her new series: 'You see many more naked men than you see naked women, which is quite pleasing, since women have been asked to expose themselves forever and a day.

'We've got all the boys frantically dieting and working out hard for their naked scenes and all of the women going out for lovely dinners.'.

She explained how many of the women in The Wheel of Time were 'mentors and role models for them growing up', which she thought was 'very interesting'.

Frankly, I bow to no one in my love for — yet acknowledgment of the ridiculousness of — Game Of Thrones.

For a start, I must stop referring to it as Wheel Of Fortune, which is a cheesy game show rather than some cheesy dragon-and-orc affair.

On the Thrones tick list, The Wheel Of Time boasts plaits, man buns, bad bleach jobs, craggy landscapes, medieval yokels, career-minded females, scary monsters, swords of significance, flaky mysticism, immortal love interests, chosen ones, impending evil and guts and gore aplenty

At £8 million an episode, it looks more expensive than early episodes of Game Of Thrones

When Game Of Thrones was good, it was very good, crackling with wit, intellect and the screen’s most quotable dialogue
