"The skies are strange." Amazon has revealed a new teaser trailer for the upcoming Lord of the Rings series, titled The Rings of Power. This teaser is available "exclusively" if you have Prime Video, though there's a 10 second clip on YouTube as well. The series brings to screens the heroic legends of the fabled Second Age of Middle-earth's history. This epic drama is set thousands of years before the events of Tolkien’s Hobbit and Lord of the Rings, and will take viewers back to an era in which great powers were forged… From the darkest depths of the Misty Mountains, to the majestic forests of the elf-capital of Lindon, to the island kingdom of Númenor, to the furthest reaches of the map, these kingdoms and characters will carve out legacies that live on long after they are gone. The big cast includes Robert Aramayo, Owain Arthur, Nazanin Boniadi, Morfydd Clark, Ismael Cruz Córdova, Markella Kavenagh, Sophia Nomvete, Lenny Henry, Charlie Vickers, Megan Richards, and Maxim Baldry. There's not much to this teaser, everyone is looking at some comet or meteor in the sky and that's it. I'm still excited, but all of the footage so far hasn't been impressive.
