After “The Lord of the Rings – The Return of the King”: This is how Amazon’s expensive series continues – Series News
Amazon Prime Video will send you back to Middle Earth at the end of 2021: There is an advance series of “Lord of the Rings” coming. In the video we go into more detail about the content:
Amazon wants to spend an unbelievable $ 500 million for the first two seasons of the “Lord of the Rings” series (if it collects money for rights and the budget for two seasons) – a sum that only the giant company can afford to fund its movie and series projects with money from mail order business and services Internet.
But due to the lack of trailers and production photos, the “Lord of the Rings” mega project remains a very mysterious thing at the moment.
After all, the approximate content of the series has now been officially confirmed. It will take place thousands of years before the adventures of Frodo and Bilbo, when Obermotz Sauron gains strength and finally 20 rings of strength are formed. FILMSTARTS Video Producer Sebastian gives you the details in the video above.
Christmas could begin in 2021

The shooting takes place in New Zealand, the unofficial country of The Lord of the Rings – Peter Jackson and his crew have shot here, too. The main cast has already been revealed:
