ALLiances Formed in "The Rings of Power" Trailer May Shock Viewers
Get ready, fans of Middle-earth! The second season of Rings of Power is almost upon us, and it looks like things are about to go sideways for our favorite characters - and I mean really sideways. If you're one of the lucky ones who hasn't kept up with the latest spoilers, here's a breakdown of what you can expect in the upcoming season.
The new trailer gives us a glimpse into all the chaos that's about to erupt. We see our beloved elves having their kingdoms wrecked by the scourge of Sauron (played by Joseph Mawle, although Sam Hazeldine will pick up the mantle in Season 2). The dwarves aren't having a much better time, as they're getting stomped on by balrogs. And the Númenóreans? Well, they're just dealing with their usual dose of political BS, but we know that's only the beginning.
But what's a dark time without desperate measures? The trailer hints at some extreme tactics being taken to try and curb the tide of destruction. We even see Galadriel striking a deal with Adar, despite their bitter enmity. And speaking of Adar, he gets a healthy dose of screen time here, lurking in the shadows and scheming to bring down our heroes.
Sauron, on the other hand, seems to be enjoying himself, cavorting around Eregion and generally making a mess of things for Celebrimbor and the rest of Middle-earth. But don't worry, he's bound to get his comeuppance eventually.
