This epic drama is set thousands of years before the events of J.R.R. 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 gives us a general idea of where to begin and contains some other story clues as well. Let’s dig in.īefore we get started, let’s take a look at the official synopsis for Amazon’s The Lord of the Rings series. I’ve also sprinkled in some other events from the appendices that could make it into the show. This is mostly based on information listed in the official synopsis for the series. With that in mind, I’ve assembled some of the major events from the Second Age that will almost definitely appear. You can read more of a breakdown of how the rights will likely work in our explainer here. (Unless those events also appear in the appendices.) It’s all a bit tricky and I’m not positive I have it totally figured out. From what I understand, that means we won’t be getting stuff from The Silmarillion. For starters, Amazon only has the right to Second Age events and characters as they appear in the appendices of The Lord of the Rings. There are also a few things to keep in mind heading in. Tolkien’s mythical world is about to open itself to a brand new generation of fans, and there are so many incredible possibilities. (The same country where Peter Jackson filmed his Lord of the Rings and Hobbit trilogies.) We also know the series is set in the Second Age of Middle-earth. We know they’re currently filming in New Zealand.
Part of that anticipation comes from knowing so little about the show. Amazon’s The Lord of the Rings series is just around the corner and we cannot wait.
