The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power Season 2 debuts on Prime Video on August 29, 2024.
The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power brings to screens for the very first time the heroic legends of the fabled Second Age of Middle-earth's history. This epic drama is set thousands of years before the events of J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings books and will take viewers back to an era in which great powers were forged, kingdoms rose to glory and fell to ruin, unlikely heroes were tested, hope hung by the finest of threads, and the greatest villain that ever flowed from Tolkien’s pen threatened to cover all the world in darkness.
In Season Two of The Rings of Power, Sauron has returned. 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.
Building on Season One’s epic scope and ambition, the new season plunges even its most beloved and vulnerable characters into a rising tide of darkness, challenging each to find their place in a world that is increasingly on the brink of calamity. Elves and dwarves, orcs and men, wizards and Harfoots… as friendships are strained and kingdoms begin to fracture, the forces of good will struggle ever more valiantly to hold on to what matters to them most of all… each other

00:03 This season, Gajal's being driven more by a bigger purpose.
00:11 And I feel she's once again becoming
00:13 connected with Middle-earth and with all the people in it.
00:16 That's making her quest more important,
00:18 since Sauron is building his strength.
00:20 We are in Mordor.
00:25 One of the exciting things about this year
00:26 is we're going to get to see Sauron out in the open,
00:29 making everything happen.
00:31 We'll be able to watch it all unfold.
00:32 With Durin, his relationship with his father has gone,
00:39 and his pride has taken a massive hit.
00:42 The darkness did reach him.
00:45 He's received the biggest bow to his spirit thus far.
00:48 It gets a little darker.
00:50 The chessboard's been set, and I am
00:52 seeing the chess pieces move.
00:54 The second season, it really feels like the gloves come off.
00:57 Brace yourself.
00:59 [MUSIC PLAYING]
01:01 Set a watch at every crossing.
01:03 He must not escape.
01:04 I've had an unexpected visitor.
01:11 Who'd have thought a ring could have so much power?
01:16 They should name a show after it.
01:17 Yeah.
01:18 The Power of Rings.
01:19 [LAUGHTER]
01:20 What about rings?
01:22 Rings of power.
01:23 It's just really exciting to finally be back.
01:26 I'm just so grateful to be a part of it.
01:28 Here we are in new territory, new places to visit.
01:36 I mean, the set is almost too scary to go into.
01:42 Don't look.
01:43 [GRUNTING]
01:44 [MUSIC PLAYING]
01:45 [SCREAMING]
01:48 The detail that the craftsmen have put in there is incredible.
01:51 You actually get lost when you're here.
01:55 When you're in costume on the set,
01:58 you're going to discover even more wonderful things to do.
02:01 We kind of touched on it and teased on it in season one.
02:04 This time, you will see us in all our glory.
02:06 There's things that we're doing that are completely new,
02:11 and you do sort of get plunged straight into the story.
02:14 It's been a long way.
02:18 Some bad things might have happened.
02:19 Some good things may have happened.
02:21 There's a lot of danger, a lot of excitement,
02:23 but we're back in Middle Earth.
02:25 Will you fight?
