Prime Video has announced that The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power will be back for a third season.

Preproduction has started on the show, and filming will begin in the spring.

The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power has attracted over 170 million viewers worldwide, and continues to be one of Amazon’s strongest drivers for new Prime membership sign-ups.

The show is set during the Second Age of Middle-earth’s history, thousands of years before the events of J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings books. The show stars Robert Aramayo as Elrond, Morfydd Clark as Galadriel, Charlie Vickers as Sauron, and more.

Season 2 of the show wrapped up on October 2, 2024.

Jumping forward several years from the events of the past season, Season 3 takes place at the height of the War of the Elves and Sauron, as the Dark Lord seeks to craft the One Ring that will give him the edge he needs to win the war and conquer all Middle-earth at last.
