While it is true, ‘The Lord of the Rings: The rings of power’ is an original Amazon Prime Video series set thousands of years before the Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit trilogies, so it won’t show the character played by actor Ian McKellen, GandalfAt least in the first few seasons.

However, we must not forget that currently the Amazon streaming service, in addition to having the textual rights to ‘The Appendices’, also owns the rights to Tolkien’s books,’ The Fellowship of the Ring ‘,’ The Two Towers’, ‘The The Return of the King “and” The Hobbit “, stories in which Gandalf is the protagonist, so at some point this new fantasy series could show this complex character again.

Furthermore, in a recent interview conducted by the BBC, Sir Ian McKellen spoke about the possibility of reviving the iconic wizard Gandalf in new Amazon Prime Video serieswhere, although it is a fact that this character will not appear at the moment, the actor is open to the possibility of returning.

Without a doubt, this is excellent news. Ian Mckellen is open to the possibility of becoming Gandalf again for this Amazon Prime Video production, but we will have to wait to see what the result that ‘The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power’ gets, with its first seasons, to know if this production will have enough deliveries to show at some point to Gandalf.
