The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power is returning this August with a second season that somehow promises to be even bigger and more ambitious than its first. The forthcoming season will introduce a few new, noteworthy faces, like Tom Bombadil (Rory Kinnear), and also adapt several major, canonical turning points in Middle-earth's history, including Sauron's (Charlie Vickers) deception of the Elven-smith Celebrimbor (Charles Edwards). By all available indications, the latter storyline will give The Rings of Power Season 2 the chance to deliver some of the bigger moments that J.R.R. Tolkien fans have been waiting for ever since the series was announced.
