Sprawling vistas, snow-covered mountains, epic battles on horseback, villains made of deadly fire, and creatures with large feet strolling in the field are what ‘The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power‘ promises.
Amazon Prime Video just released the new trailer for the upcoming series. While there have been previous spectacular glimpses, this one takes things up to another level.
The Trailer Of ‘Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power’ Brings A New Set Of Adventures
“This could be the beginning of a new era,” says one of the dwarves in the latest trailer. ‘The Rings of Power‘ takes place generations before the adventures of Bilbo, Frodo, and the rest of the characters of the franchise, but the problems remain largely the same. Evil manifests and it’s not only up to the heroes of Middle-Earth to defend it, but the unexpected ones to fight and become legends.
While the trailer introduces many characters, it’s hard to pinpoint what exactly the stories are going to be. Or, more specifically, how all the stories are going to come together. Will they ever come together? This, of course, is season one of five planned so there’s no rush to reach closure.
About The Book ‘The Lord Of The Rings’
‘The Lord of the Rings‘ is an epic high-fantasy novel by English author and scholar J. R. R. Tolkien. Set in Middle-earth, intended to be Earth at some distant time in the past, the story began as a sequel to Tolkien’s 1937 children’s book ‘The Hobbit‘, but eventually developed into a much larger work. Written in stages between 1937 and 1949, ‘The Lord of the Rings’ is one of the best-selling books ever written, with over 150 million copies sold.
The title refers to the story’s main antagonist, the Dark Lord Sauron, who at an earlier age created the One Ring to rule the other Rings of Power given to men, dwarves, and elves. His campaign was to conquer all of Middle-earth.
The story ranges across Middle-earth, following the quest to destroy the One Ring mainly through the eyes of the hobbits Frodo, Sam, Merry, and Pippin.
‘The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power’ debuts on Amazon’s Prime Video on September 2.
