Rings of Power Season 2 Showrunners Tease a ‘More Mysterious, Mistier & Darker’ Return to Middle-Earth
The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power co-showrunner Patrick McKay and executive producer Lindsey Weber have teased the show’s imminent Season 2 premiere. For all the whimsy they promised Tolkien fans, they teased “an even darker path than any of us anticipated” in the return to the chaos of Middle-earth. Season 1 of the hit Amazon series followed various characters all unknowingly on the path toward the return of the villainous Sauron (Charlie Vickers). Now that he’s back in action, the peaceful landscape is on the verge of a major shake-up as faces familiar (like Morfydd Clark’s Galadriel) and new (such as Ismael Cruz Crdova’s Arondir) prepare for battle.
