Lord of the Rings showrunners dismiss reports that series will feature sex scenes and nudity
There were whispers going around that the Lord of the Rings TV show, titled The Rings of Power, would include sex scenes after an intimacy coordinator was brought to set in New Zealand.

Luckily, those rumors appear to have been made up by vengeful Sackville Bagginses.
