Elves and dwarves, orcs and men, sorcerers and Harfoots… as friendships fray and kingdoms begin to crumble, the forces of good will fight ever more valiantly to hold on to what matters most to them… being there for each other.
The Rings of Power in Brief
The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power brings to the screen for the first time the heroic legends of the fabled Second Age of Middle-earth’s history. This epic drama takes place thousands of years before the events of The Hobbit And The Lord of the Rings by JRR Tolkien, and takes viewers to a distant age when great powers were forged, kingdoms rose to glory and fell to ruin, unlikely heroes were tested, hope hung by the slenderest of threads, and the greatest villain Tolkien had ever created threatened to plunge the entire world into darkness.
Beginning in a time of relative peace, the series follows a group of characters, some familiar, some new, as they prepare to face the feared return of evil in Middle-earth. From the darkest depths of the Misty Mountains, to the majestic forests of the Elven capital of Lindon, to the breathtaking island kingdom of Númenor, to the most extreme places on the map, these kingdoms and characters will build a legacy that will live on well beyond their time.
The first season of Rings of Power was an unprecedented success, watched by more than 100 million people worldwide, with over 32 billion minutes of streaming. The highly anticipated series attracted more than 25 million viewers globally on its first day of release, becoming the biggest debut in Prime Video history, and also debuted at No. 1 on Nielsen’s overall streaming charts for its release weekend.
The second season of The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power is produced by showrunners and executive producers JD Payne & Patrick McKay. They are joined by executive producers Lindsey Weber, Callum Greene, Justin Doble, Jason Cahill, and Gennifer Hutchison, along with co-executive producer and director Charlotte Brandstrom, producers Kate Hazell and Helen Shang, and co-producers Clare Buxton, Andrew Lee, Glenise Mullins, and Matthew Penry-Davey. The other two directors for season two are Sanaa Hamri and Louise Hooper.
