Peter Jackson is not participating in the “Lord of the Rings” series, which is due to debut on Amazon Prime Video in 2021. Other filmmakers are responsible for staging. After JA Bayona, Wayne Che Yip is now a second director.
Director Peter Jackson made cinematic history through his cinematic fit adaptation of JRR Tolkien’s groundbreaking fictional saga, The Lord of the Rings. With the upcoming “The Lord of the Rings” series, it will be even more difficult to follow in the footsteps of the New Zealander who was not involved in the production.
It has always been evident that Spaniard JA Bayona (“Jurassic World 2”, “Seven Minutes After Midnight”) will take on the difficult legacy and be responsible for launching the first two episodes. But he does not have to bear the burden of directing alone:
With Wayne Chi Yip, Amazon has now announced another director for the “Lord of the Rings” series. – Who sits behind the wheel for a total of four episodes and thus will also put his stamp on the series (even if Bayona, as the premier episode maker, is likely the main driver of the style).
