While the first season made Galadriel its main character, it seems that Sauron will be the protagonist to follow in this sequel. Lindsey Weber, executive producer of The Rings of Power, has also assured that this season 2 will be “more gritty, more intense, maybe a little more frightening” than this launch.
Interviewed by The Hollywood Reporter, Patrick McKay, one of the creators of the Rings of Power had for his part specified:
200% Deposit Bonus up to €3,000 180% First Deposit Bonus up to $20,000Sauron can now simply be Sauron. Like Tony Soprano or Walter White. He's evil, but with a complex evilness. We felt that if we did that in the first season, he would overshadow everything else. So the first season is like Batman Begins, and The Dark Knight is the next movie, with Sauron maneuvering in broad daylight. We're very excited. The second season has a canonical story. Some viewers may be thinking, “This is the story we were hoping to find in the first season. In the second season, we're giving it to them.”
For the rest, the Amazon teams promise us a great show and resources as well as a faster pace, and in view of this first trailer, it seems that this is not just an empty promise.
What casting for season 2 ?
For now, the entire cast is not yet known. However, we should find the same figures as for the first season, with a few additions. Here is the non-exhaustive list of forces present: Galadriel (Morfydd Clark), Elrond (Robert Aramayo), Arondir (Ismael Cruz Cordova), Gil-galad (Benjamin Walker), Disa (Sophia Nomvete), Durin IV (Owain Arthur), Durin III (Peter Mullan), Poppy Fiercompère (Megan Richards), Marigold Brandepied (Sara Zwangobani), Theo (Tyroe) Muhafidin), Halbrand (Charlie Vickers), Miriel (Cynthia Addai-Robinson), Bronwyn (Nazanin Boniadi).
Finally, according to GamesRadar, three newcomers join the cast: Ciaran Hinds (Game of Thrones), Rory Kinnear (James Bond) and Tanya Moodie (Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker). Given the first images of this trailer and the promises of the production, what do you think of this second season ? Feel free to share your point of view in the comments.
