To prepare for the role, Roberts copied every reference to Uno and the Shienarans into a note file on his phone, and he would re-read the whole thing every day of shooting season 1 as a way to get into character.

On April 19, 2024 during a panel at JordanCon, Guy Roberts revealed that there was some back-and-forth for showrunner Rafe Judkins regarding the choice to kill off Roberts' character Uno. Roberts pitched to have Uno survive, but eventually asked Judkins that if Uno was killed, to bring him back as a Hero of the Horn. Rafe Judkins said he really liked the idea but that it wasn't going to happen. Guy Roberts played Uno through season 2 as though he thought Uno would come back, although that wasn't the plan for production. Rafe Judkins later got permission from the Robert Jordan Estate and Uno was brought back as a Hero of the Horn.JordanCon panel The Wheel of Time on Prime Season 2 Adaptation Panel, April 19, 2024.
