MOVIE NEWS – The Rings of Power season 2: what to expect from the second season? The sequel to the series is already in the works, and the cast and creators have dropped some exciting details about the story, the characters and the filming.

The Rings of Power was one of Amazon Prime Video’s biggest hits in recent years. The fantasy series set in the world of Middle-earth created by J.R.R. Tolkien impressed both viewers and critics with its first season, and the second season has already been announced and is currently in production.

The second season will allow us to dive deeper into the history of Middle-earth, which was only glimpsed in the first season. The series takes place in the Second Age, when Sauron was not yet the Dark Lord, but a seductive figure who tried to influence the people, the elves and the dwarves. The creation of the Rings of Power and the conflicts that come with it also play an important role in the story.

The cast of the second season is largely returning from the first one, but we will also see some new faces. Charlie Vickers plays Sauron, Morfydd Clark plays Galadriel, Robert Aramayo plays Elrond, Benjamin Walker plays Gil-galad, Charles Edwards plays Celebrimbor, Ismael Cruz Córdova plays Arondir, Nazain Boniadi plays Bronwyn, Tyroe Muhafidin plays Theo and Cynthia Addai-Robinson plays Míriel. Newcomers to the series include Lenny Henry (Balor), Peter Mullan (Gorlim), Augustus Prew (Elatan), Benjamin Walker (Gil-galad), Simon Merrells (Tar-Minastir), Lloyd Owen (Elendil) and Maxim Baldry (Isildur).

The filming of the second season is currently underway in the UK and Europe. The first season was made in New Zealand, but they changed the location due to the coronavirus pandemic. Several actors and creators have talked about the filming process and the atmosphere behind the scenes in interviews and social media posts.

The premiere of the second season will have to wait for a while. The head of Amazon Studios, Vernon Sanders, said that although they would like to present the second season as soon as possible, it is more likely that it will not appear in 2023. The production of the series is a very complex and time-consuming process that requires a lot of work and attention.

The fans of The Rings of Power do not have to completely give up on the series, as the documentary about the making of the first season is already available on Amazon Prime Video. The Rings of Power season 2 will have to wait a little longer, but in the meantime it is worth rewatching the first season or reading Tolkien’s books.”
