The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power

The Lord of the Rings television prequel series, The Rings of Power, is coming to Amazon Prime. We get a real first look at the teaser trailer released today. Despite the story being set during the Second Age of Middle-Earth, thousands of years before the events of The Lord of the Rings, we see some familiar characters, because certain species live very long lives. Galadriel and Elrond look magically like the older versions we know. We will nevertheless have an awful lot of new characters to learn about. The production values are glorious, which was necessary if we want to relate this at all to the movies. Let's just hope the story, which is gleaned from Tolkien's work, holds up to our expectations. The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power will premiere on Amazon Prime on September 2.
