A new The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power trailer teases the natural beauty of this new version of Middle-earth and other locations. Based on Tolkien's iconic The Lord of the Rings novels, Prime Video's upcoming series is set to mark a return to the world of Middle-earth, but with a brand new take on the source material. Taking place hundreds of years before the events of Peter Jackson's beloved The Lord of the Rings trilogy, The Rings of Power chronicles a new cast of characters and the rise of Sauron in the prosperous Second Age of Middle-earth.
While Jackson's trilogy was beloved for many reasons, his focus on using the natural landscapes of New Zealand was a major highlight for many fans. The wild and varied landscape provided the backdrop for massive battles and heroic feats, something that The Rings of Power is seemingly keen to repeat, with filming for season 1 also taking place in New Zealand. Initial trailers for The Rings of Power have provided a first look at many of the locations, including the Mines of Moria and Numenor's capital city of Armenelos.

Now, the official The Lord of the Rings on Prime Twitter account has shared a brand new trailer for the highly-anticipated show. The latest clip makes the landscape of Middle-earth a central focus. The trailer provides an even closer look at the Mines of Moria, abandoned castles, scenic beaches, and more, teasing that Middle-earth is about to "descend into shadow," presumably referring to Sauron's rise.
