The logo for the new Amazon series, The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power,took a massive amount of technical skill and effort to create. The title of the series, and a brief description of its plot details and setting, was released earlier today, giving eager LOTR audiences more of an idea of the show's focus. The new multi-season fantasy series, developed by Amazon Prime Videowith an eye-watering budget, will be debuting later on in 2022 on September 2nd.
The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Powerwill be the first new piece of LOTR media seen on screen since The Hobbittrilogy concluded in 2014. Since then, Amazon has taken charge of the franchise's future and determined that TV is the way forward rather than more films. The decision will have come off the back of the success of other recent fantasy TV series such as Game of Thronesand The Witcher. However, further information on the series, which wrapped filming back in August of 2021, has been sporadic and vague other than the reveal that it will take place during Middle-earth's Second Age.
