One ring to rule them all; One ring to find them; One ring to bring them all, and in the darkness bind them.
Tolkien fans are still holding out for another trailer for Prime Video's The Lord of the Rings prequel series, but for now, Empire Magazine has shared four The Rings of Power-themed covers for its upcoming issue.
The first three spotlight the races of Middle Earth who'll take center stage in this tale, with Morfydd Clark’s Galadriel representing the Elves, Owain Arthur’s Prince Durin IV and Sophia Nomvete’s Princess Disa representing the Dwarves, and Megan Richards’ Poppy Proudfellow, Markella Kavenagh’s Elanor ‘Nori’ Brandyfoot, and Sir Lenny Henry’s Sadoc Burrows representing the Hobbits Harfoots.
Finally, we have legendary concept artist John Howe's depiction of the creature that was glimpsed in that first trailer, which has now been confirmed to be Snow Troll!
Check out the covers in the Twitter thread below.
Amazon Studios’ forthcoming series 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, 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 the greatest villain 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 re-emergence 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 furthest reaches of the map, these kingdoms and characters will carve out legacies that live on long after they are gone.
The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power is set to premiere on Friday, September 2.
