The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power Season 1 Main Teaser

Check out the new The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power Season 1 Main Teaser starring Cynthia Addai-Robinson!

US Air Date: September 2, 2022
Starring: Morfydd Clark, Owain Arthur, Sophia Nomvete, Ismael Cruz Córdova, Robert Aramayo
Network: Prime Video
Synopsis: Prime Video's The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power brings to screens for the very first time the heroic legends of the fabled Second Age of Middle-earth's history.

This epic drama is set thousands of years before the events of J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, and will take viewers back to an era in which great powers were forged, kingdoms rose to glory and fell to ruin, unlikely heroes were tested, hope hung by the finest of threads, and the greatest villain that ever flowed from Tolkien’s pen threatened to cover all the world in darkness. Beginning in a time of relative peace, the series follows an ensemble cast of characters, both familiar and new, as they confront the long-feared re-emergence of evil to Middle-earth. From the darkest depths of the Misty Mountains, to the majestic forests of the elf-capital of Lindon, to the breathtaking island kingdom of Númenor, to the furthest reaches of the map, these kingdoms and characters will carve out legacies that live on long after they are gone.

"Evil cannot create anything new, they can only corrupt” - J.R.R Tolkien

[moxx]

Peter Jackson portrayed the Tolkien's world beautifully,
This one looks like Narnia and wheel of time mixture

[christianefiorito]

There is no curse in elvish, entish or in the tounges of men for this treachery. J.R.R. Tolkien.

[avaria]

“The past is dead.”
Yep. You killed it.

[ladyleeloo]

And Karendriel showed up and said "I demand to speak to your manager!" It gave me chills.

[prsnt]

Peter Jackson set the bar way too high even decades later you can't do anything as good as what he filmed.

[jokerwwe]

“Evil cannot create anything new, they can only corrupt and ruin what good forces have invented or made.” The quote is attributed to JRR Tolkien.

[davidkroger]

Peter Jacksons achievement was to portray Tolkien's world as a real one and not too much fantasy. This one I fear will go down a lot more in that direction

[SolzheBitsyn]

“The Shadow that bred them can only mock, it cannot make: not real things of its own" - JRR Tolkien

[unitron]

"Whereas Melkor spent his energy in envy and hate, until at last he could make nothing save in mockery of the thought of others; and all their works he destroyed if he could." - Excerpt from "Valaquenta" by J.R.R. Tolkien.

[kentjensen]

This is so disrespectful. I was going to avoid this to begin with and making the mistake of viewing this trailer has made me even more sad and angry about what these marauders are doing to the great life’s work of JRRT.

[Sopmylo]

"The Past is Dead, we either die or move forward". Said by the writers as they take a hatchet to Tolkien.

[johnord]

There is no curse in Elvish, Entish, or the tongues of Men for this treachery

[absolutelybased]

Everyone involved with the making of this should be lined up against the wall

[lizardkicker]

"How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad had happened? But in the end, it’s only a passing thing, this shadow. Even darkness must pass.”
-J. R. R. Tolkien

This series, this shadow, will pass. People will reject it, and it will disappear in the dustbin of failed shows.

[zetagundamx]

All I can say is that I’m glad I grew up in the era the original trilogy was made. Such timeless classics.

This will be forgotten in the sands of time

[francac]

“But as the theme progressed, it came into the heart of Melkor to interweave matters of his own imagining that were not in accord with the theme of Ilúvatar, for he sought therein to increase the power and glory of the part assigned to himself.” - The Silmarilion by J.R.R. Tolkien

[JonathanSirico]

Amazon could have made the same show for a billion dollars less. They didn't need Tolkien's name to make a generic fantasy series.

[meco]

'Put your hands up in the air! Wave em around like you just don't care!' - JRR Tolkien

[mikeypadventures]

This trailer has actually made me less excited than the first tiny teaser. I'm worried it looks a lot like everything else. The main thing I was hoping it would avoid.
