Will Rings Of Power Show Gil-Galad's Death At The Hands Of Sauron?

As someone who lived through a terrible world war, and saw more than his fair share of suffering and trauma, Tolkien was not afraid to write about grisly deaths within his stories. It has become a theme in many modern TV shows and films that the protagonists of the story, the really important characters, never die, surviving to the end. However, this was not the case within Tolkien’s works. In fact, it was quite the opposite. Part of Tolkien’s life in WWI included the idea that it was an honorable death to die fighting to protect those you love, and this is a theme that translates into many of his noble heroes. Some of the best examples of this include the deaths of Thorin, Fili, and Kili, the sons of Durin’s line, in The Hobbit. And of course, in Lord of the Rings, there is Boromir, the son of Gondor who redeemed himself right at the end by dying to save Merry and Pippin.

Now, with the Amazon TV series the Rings of Power having recently launched, fans are beginning to wonder what epic deaths will be featured on the show, and which heroic characters will be lost along the way. There are obvious characters like Galadriel, Elrond and Sauron (or at least his spirit and dark power) that definitely won’t die during the Rings of Power. Viewers already know that these characters must survive, because they have such important parts to play in the later Hobbit and Lord of the Rings stories. However, there are also a whole host of new characters in the upcoming series who have no such permanence, characters like Bronwin, Arondir, Nori the harfoot. One character in particular who has caught the attention of many fans is Gil-galad, and the question as to whether the series will explore his terrible demise.
