Amazon's TheRingsofPower series lives up to the hype with episodes that wonderfully channel the scope, spectacle, and heart of The Lord of the Rings saga.
Few streaming series have carried as much weight into their premiere as The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power, Amazon Studios’ ambitious, ludicrously expensive series set in the world of J.R.R. Tolkien’s Middle-earth saga. Not only is the Prime Video series telling a new story set in one of the fantasy genre’s most seminal — and as such, highly scrutinized — worlds, but its success could very well determine the fate of an entire streaming service.
While the series’ cast is largely composed of characters not present in The Hobbit or The Lord of the Rings, one of the primary arcs in the show’s early episodes is led by young versions of two important figures in those sagas: The elves Galadriel and Elrond. Morfydd Clark portrays Galadriel, an elven commander obsessed with rooting out evil forces in Middle-earth, while Robert Aramayo plays Elrond, a brilliant elven politician and scholar.
More on The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power In this and other ways, The Rings of Power feels more akin to The Lord of the Rings films than The Hobbit, too — particularly as its story unfolds across multiple, parallel narratives.
Great fantasy sagas find the balance between dire stakes and heroes whose journey never gets mired in the bleakness of the events unfolding around them. The Rings of Power channels that relationship wonderfully with heroes whose noble sense of purpose outshines the darkness of the forces aligning against them.
