What to know
The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power season 1 is the first season of the TV show inspired by J. R. R. Tolkien's expansive stories set in Middle-earth. The series was developed by J. D. Payne and Patrick McKay and produced by Amazon Studios, with the intention of premiering season 1 on Amazon Prime Video.
The Rings of Power season 1 takes place in the Second Age, thousands of years before the events of The Lord of the Rings trilogy. In Tolkien’s works, the Second Age sees men with Elvish heritage become prosperous seafarers on the island of Númenor. It is also known as the time in which Sauron escapes the Outer Void. The show's subtitle "The Rings of Power" refers to the many magical rings gifted to men, elves and dwarves. In Tolkien's original stories, the fallen Maia known as Sauron uses them to corrupt the rulers of Middle-earth. The same sinister plot was explained by Galadriel in the prologue to The Fellowship of the Ring. The Rings of Power season 1 premiered on September 2, 2022 in the United States on Amazon Prime Video
