Amazon Studios has released a new promotional spot for The Lord of the Rings: The rings of power, and focuses on one of the main characters in the series, Arondir, who is an elf charged with protecting the Southlanders. Arrondir is played by Ismael Cruz Cordova. The promo also includes new footage and an interview with the actor about his role in the story.
The Lord of the Rings: The rings of power “Is set thousands of years before the events of JRR Tolkien The Hobbit And The Lord of the Rings, and will take viewers back to an era where great powers were forged, kingdoms rose to glory and fell to ruin, unlikely heroes were tested, hope hung by the thinnest threads and the greatest villain to ever come out of the pen by Tolkien threatened to cover the whole world in darkness. Begun in a period of relative peace, the series follows an ensemble cast of characters, both familiar and new, as they face the much-feared resurgence of evil in Middle-earth. From the darkest depths of the Misty Mountains, to the majestic forests of the elven capital Lindon, to the breathtaking island kingdom of Númenor, to the farthest reaches of the map, these kingdoms and characters carve out legacies that will survive long after they’re gone. “
McKay had previously said of the series: “The Second Age is the great unfilmed story in Tolkien’s entire legendarium, with the forging of the rings and the Last Covenant, and we felt that that was the story that deserved to be told.” .
The series will debut on Prime Video on September 2, 2022.
