Let us talk about The Lord of the Rings. Amazon has dropped new plot details for its eagerly anticipated, mysterious mega-budget fantasy TV series The Lord Of The Rings. Additionally, the producers revealed that it will air in six languages in India.

The languages are English, Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, and Kannada. The eagerly anticipated, multi-season drama is titled The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power, Amazon has announced.

As the name suggests, the story follows the forging of the original rings of power. These rings of power allowed Sauron to spread darkness across Middle Earth.

“This is a title that we imagine could live on the spine of a book next to J.R.R. Tolkien’s other classics. The Rings of Power unites all the major stories of Middle-earth’s Second Age. That includes the forging of the rings, the rise of the Dark Lord Sauron, the epic tale of Numenor, and the Last Alliance of Elves and Men.” This showrunners J.D. Payne and Patrick McKay said.

“Until now, audiences have only seen on-screen the story of the One Ring. But before there was one, there were many… and we’re excited to share the epic story of them all,” the showrunners further noted.

The news has also quashed the earlier rumors that the prequel would not feature Sauron, the powerful, corrupting villain. This person also loomed over Peter Jackson’s Oscar-winning ‘The Lord of the Rings’ films. The company also released this video teasing the title.

The previously released official description by the makers of The Lord of the Rings told something. It read, “Lord of the Rings brings to screens for the very first time the heroic legends of the fabled Second Age of Middle-earth’s history.

The producers set this epic drama for thousands of years. It is before the events of J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings. This will take viewers back to an era in which great powers got forged, kingdoms rose to glory, and fell to ruin. It will be the times when people tested unlikely heroes, hope hung by the finest of threads. The time will show the greatest villain that ever flowed from Tolkien’s pen who 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. It is as they confront the long-feared reemergence 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 Numenor, to the furthest reaches of the map, these kingdoms and characters will carve out legacies that live on long after they die in the course of time,” the description further read.

Most people consider The Lord of the Rings the most expensive show of all time, with the first season costing an estimated USD 465 million (roughly Rs. 3,460 crores). The production mainly took place in New Zealand. Then last fall, announced it was moving to the UK.

The ensemble cast includes Cynthia Addai-Robinson, Robert Aramayo, Owain Arthur, Maxim Baldry, Nazanin Boniadi, Morfydd Clark, Ismael Cruz Cordova, Charles Edwards, Trystan Gravelle, Sir Lenny Henry.


It also includes Ema Horvath, Markella Kavenagh, Joseph Mawle, Tyroe Muhafidin, Sophia Nomvete, Lloyd Owen, Megan Richards, Dylan Smith, Charlie Vickers, Leon Wadham, Benjamin Walker, Daniel Weyman, and Sara Zwangobani.

The debut season of ‘Lord of The Rings’ is slated to air on Friday, September 2, 2022, on Prime Video and will premiere in 240 territories around the world. New episodes will be rolled out on a weekly basis, as we have known for a while.
