Prime Video‘s The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power returns with its second season. The anticipated follow-up to the big-budget J.R.R. Tolkien series premieres with three episodes.
The Rings of Power is set thousands of years prior to The Hobbit or The Lord of the Rings trilogy of films. The second season of The Rings of Power continues to follow the Second Age of Middle Earth. With the first season finally revealing the Dark Lord Sauron to the audience, fans are now looking forward to watching the continuation of his mission to create the Rings of Power and the cast of characters to aim to thwart his plans.
“Sauron has returned,” the Season 2 description reads. “Cast out by Galadriel, without army or ally, the rising Dark Lord must now rely on his own cunning to rebuild his strength and oversee the creation of the Rings of Power, which will allow him to bind all the peoples of Middle-earth to his sinister will.”
The Rings of Power stars Charlie Vickers, Morfydd Clark, Robert Aramayo, Ismael Cruz Córdova, Charles Edwards, Markella Kavenagh, Megan Richards, Owain Arthur, Sophia Nomvete, Benjamin Walker and Daniel Weyman. This season welcomes newcomers Gabriel Akuwudike, Yasen ‘Zates’ Atour, Ben Daniels and others.
J. D. Payne and Patrick McKay take the lead on developing the Prime Video series. This season of The Rings of Power is written by an eclectic cast of writers including Payne and McKay. They’re joined by Gennifer Hutchison, Jason Cahil, Helen Shang, Justin Doble, and more. Famed composer Bear McCreary returns to craft the soundscapes of the series.
The first three episodes of The Rings of Power are available to stream now on Prime Video. As with the inaugural season, Season 2 will span eight episodes with subsequent entries released each Thursday until October 3rd.
Prime Video is available in Canada for a starting price of $9.99 per month or $99 annually.
