Amazon Studios' upcoming Lord of the Rings TV show, The Rings of Power, has debuted its first full length trailer. The release comes ahead of the show's panel at San Diego Comic-Con in the famous Hall H on Friday, July 22. Previously, Rings of Power offered fans a glimpse into this new take on Middle-earth with a teaser trailer and a series of mysterious character posters featuring only hands and various props. This time around, however, we're getting a more expanded view--the full trailer clocks in at two and a half minutes and showcases more new and familiar faces than ever before. Take a look at it now.

Rings of Power is set in the Second Age of Middle-earth, meaning it is well before the events of The Hobbit or Lord of the Rings, and will deal with the events leading up to and immediately falling out of Sauron's forging of the titular rings of power. But, despite being hundreds of years before the births of Frodo or Bilbo Baggins, there will still be some very prominent Lord of the Rings characters in the mix--namely the likes of Elrond and Galadriel, who will feature in the show as very young elves. We see them here in the trailer in a conversation where Elrond impresses upon Galadriel the need to put down her sword--a request she vehemently denies.

Included with Elrond and Galadriel are the Harfoots, the ancestors of the Hobbits, as well as humans and dwarves, all of whom are attending to their various daily lives--whether that means tending fields or forests or waging wars.

Despite this extended look at the show, there's still plenty that remains a mystery. The cast includes several characters who were invented specifically for it, and do not appear in any canonical Tolkien works, meaning there is plenty of wiggle
