The multi-season drama - The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power -will premiere
exclusively on Prime Video in more than 240 countries around the world in
multiple languages on Friday, September 2, with new episodes available
weekly.
Amazon Studios’ forthcoming series 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.
