Prime Video’s The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power season one concludes on October 14, 2022 with an episode that promises to be epic. And after the season wraps up, LOTR fans can continue to dive into Middle-earth with a companion podcast hosted by Felicia Day (Supernatural).
The eight-episode podcast launches on October 14, 2022 on Amazon Music after the finale airs, and explores the events of the first season.
“As a fan of all things Tolkien, I could not be more excited to explore all things Middle-earth and spill all the magical secrets that brought the new series to life,” said Felicia Day. “The Official Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power Podcast is giving it all away; we are talking with cast and creators to get all the behind-the-scenes tea!”
Per Prime Video, the podcast is “filled with intimate cast and crew interviews, essential analysis, and Easter egg moments.” The podcast will feature interviews with showrunners J.D. Payne and Patrick McKay on the season one finale. Plus it will “go deeper into the canals of Númenor, the mines of Khazad-dûm, the halls of Lindon, and more.[…] Host Felicia Day takes a fresh and insightful look at the groundbreaking series and what it takes to bring Middle-earth to life.”
Episodes will feature interviews with The Rings of Power stars Morfydd Clark (Galadriel), Ismael Cruz Cordova (Arondir), Sophia Nomvete (Princess Disa), and Charlie Vickers (Halbrand).
The Plot:
Prime Video’s The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power brings to screens for the very first time 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 J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings books, and will take viewers back to an era in which great powers were forged, kingdoms rose to glory and fell to ruin, unlikely heroes were tested, hope hung by the finest of threads, and one of the greatest villains that ever flowed from Tolkien’s pen threatened to cover all the world in darkness.
Beginning in a time of relative peace, the series follows an ensemble cast of characters, both familiar and new, as they confront the long-feared reemergence of evil to Middle-earth. From the darkest depths of the Misty Mountains, to the majestic forests of the elf capital of Lindon, to the breathtaking island kingdom of Númenor, to the farthest reaches of the map, these kingdoms and characters will carve out legacies that live on long after they are gone.
