The adventure in Middle Earth continues with the second season of “The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power.”

This new season, which takes place many years before the famous “Lord of the Rings” films and books by J.R.R. Tolkien, will be available for streaming this month on Prime Video.

In this season, the Dark Lord Sauron is back and is trying to regain his power while overseeing the crafting of the powerful Rings. Viewers will once again meet the various beings of Middle Earth, such as elves, dwarves, orcs, men, and Harfoots. The first season debuted in 2022.

“Expanding on the ambitious narrative of Season One, the new season immerses even the most cherished and vulnerable characters into a growing darkness, prompting them to find their place in a world approaching disaster,” a Prime Video press release stated.
