The Istari don’t appear until the Third Age, but Amazon might try to work him in anyway, given the focus on the rings of power. As a wizard (Istari), he is a spirit sent by the Valar to Middle Earth in the form of an old man. This offers the potential to portray him as a more compelling and multifaceted villain. In the Second Age Sauron is not just the purely antagonistic force depicted in the novel and the films, but also a subtle trickster and manipulator. They are both important figures of the Second Age and recipients of rings of power, so they will certainly play an active role. The elven queen Galadriel will be a central character, and also Elrond, the lord of Rivendell. Is anyone from the Lord of the Rings around in the Second Age? This probably won’t make into the Amazon series, though, unless it runs for quite a few seasons. It is later destroyed by the Witch-King of Angmar, the most powerful of Sauron’s Nazgûl, which is why we don’t hear much about it in the Lord of the Rings.
Amazon Studios What’s Arnor? Tell me about Arnor!Īrnor is established towards the end of the Second Age as a sister-kingdom to the more familiar Gondor and is located far to the north. This partnership seems to have worked out so far on "The Rings of Power," giving us a thrilling and unique fantasy story that - complicated rights issues and all - should provide even more excitement to come.A first look from Amazon Studios upcoming The Rings of Power. There was never any disconnect there, which is probably why it worked out so well." We all have the same kind of vision for this property. This seems to have been alluded to in a recent Variety profile of Amazon Studios head Jennifer Salke, who remarked on Simon Tolkien's work on the series and that ".the estate was very open and encouraging for reinvention, but always in ways that stay true to Tolkien. This unprecedented collaboration, previously unheard-of in the history of the Tolkien Estate and its tumultuous relationship with previous adaptations, almost certainly thawed the frost between both parties and allowed for a relaxing of the rules. Well, consider that the show's creatives worked closely with Tolkien Estate director and Tolkien's own grandson, Simon Tolkien, throughout the process.
How to explain the studio's apparent flouting of their own deal?
