The rise of the Dark Lord Sauron and the forging of the Rings of Power will be covered in The Rings of Power. The company seems to be putting all of its money into The Rings of Power in order to fill a cultural void left by the end of Game of Throne. The series will include younger versions of characters from the main trilogy, including Elrond and Galadriel. Posters for The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power confirm the names of some of the characters.
The Rings of Power will have to compete with one of the most beloved works of fantasy literature and one of the most acclaimed film adaptions of all time. Celebrimbor, the forger of the Rings, was confirmed by Prime as one of the characters. The Rings of Power looks similar to the canon with its characters, but fans will have to wait and see if the series can fulfill its lofty ambitions. The Rings of Power is not a continuation of Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings, but is intended to depict a different age of Middle-earth. The decision to focus on the characters' hands and objects is an interesting choice; while general audiences are very familiar with those like Frodo and Gandalf, The Rings of Power is building up a Middle-earth ensemble that primarily revolves around less well-known figures.
Prime Video will show The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power on September 2.
Five character posters for The Rings of Power have been released by Prime Video. Each sheet shows the hands and torso of the characters, with various props that represent their role. Rings of Power will feature a similar production design to Jackson's films, but will be different in terms of structure and tone. The creative team has confirmed that there will be 5 seasons in total, with a season 2 already in the works. The first season of the series will be on Prime Video. It will be interesting to see what Prime Video has in store for viewers. The last alliance between Elves and Men will be covered.
