how they treat the characters inner monologue

Agreed. definitely the biggest challenge for this particular series

I wouldn't worry about that much at all.

I would wonder how the frick they're going to juggle 4-5 major storylines that cross multiple books before any resolution.

I would wonder how they're going to juggle such a large cast that is separate for so much of the story with multiple characters missing and/or presumed dead for multiple books.

I would wonder how accurately they want to adapt the sexual politics that pervade so much of the novels in a sort of chaste sense. In high fantasy novels of the early 90s, men and women could distrust each other and squabble and fight but then love takes over and everyone gets married and it's alright. Is that possible in 2020?

Also, will the inevitable pushback on the budgets affect the inevitable desire to overcut from Jordan's bloated storylines?
