The Rings of Power: When is Season 2 coming out on Prime Video?

The finale of Rings of Power, which aired on Prime Video on October 14, answered many questions but left things unresolved for the already-ordered Season 2. But when will the eight new episodes arrive?

The shooting of the series has already been resumed. No Longer New Zealand: To save money, production was moved to Scotland and a London studio set up specifically for the series.

The idea is that subsequent seasons will be less than the 18 months required for Season 1 (partially due to COVID), but the reality is that showrunners have recommended not to wait for a season. “two years ago”.

Which therefore takes us to 2024 and more likely in October than February.

The first season was like a long pilot, setting the stakes and the first threats, exploring the character of Galadriel, her character, her suffering, her motivations. Of admission itself From the creators of the series, the second season will do the same, but with Sauron, and they even elaborate:

Like Tony Soprano or Walter White, he’s wicked, but wickedly complex.

The first eight episodes answered most of the mysteries it posed. It remains to be seen how the series will stage the destruction caused by Sauron in Middle-earth, which will require a lot of special effects and therefore… post-production time to bring the battles to life.

While waiting for the first photos from the set, fans will be able to review episodes from the first season in light of the reveal of Episode 8, which will likely make for a delicious re-watch.
