Dónal Finn is an Irish actor portrays Mat Cauthon beginning in the second season of Prime Video's The Wheel of Time.
On September 20, 2021, it was announced that Finn was cast as Mat for season 2, as actor Barney Harris would not be returning to the role after season 1.

Dónal Finn said that "it was a whirlwind of getting cast in a role" of Mat Cauthon. He was filming a different project in Morocco, and then immediately went to Prague for a reading, costume fitting, hair cut, and "before [he] knew it, [he] was on the set." He hadn't watched season 1 before stepping into the role in season 2.
