Watch The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power Season Finale Trailer below:
The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power is a 50-hour television series, Amazon’s biggest investment yet with a budget of USD 1 billion. With relatively fresh faces headlining the show, it might seem like a risky bet, and predicting its fate based on two episodes that were made available for preview is probably not wise. But the tone seems to have been set just right, and it seems that a thrilling ride awaits the fans of Tolkien.
The series follows Morfydd Clark’s Galadriel, essayed so elegantly by Cate Blanchett in Peter Jackson’s movies. This Galadriel is a younger elf with a fire burning inside her to find the evil that killed her brother and free the world of it, once and for all. She believes her gut more than her friend’s advice, and Clark displays that quality on screen brilliantly. The series seems to lean heavily on her shoulders – kudos to the creators for putting a woman at the forefront this time.
Galadriel’s friend Elrond seems to be another key player in the scheme of things. A master politician who can also break large rocks, quite literally, the role of Elrond played by Robert Aramayo is one we should watch out for. The new series can also be viewed as origin stories for both Galadriel and Elrond.
