Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) has begun to offer the first glimpses of its upcoming Prime Video series “The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power,” with a 60-second trailer that premiered during Sunday night’s Super Bowl broadcast and an extended spread in Vanity Fair that provides more depth to the on-screen characters and the actors playing these roles.
What Happened: The trailer opens with an off-screen voice declaring, “Haven't you ever wondered what else is out there?” From there, the viewer is presented with the series’ vision of the Second Age of Middle Earth, inspired by J.R.R.Tolkien’s iconic fantasy fiction.
