The return to J.R.R. Tolkien’s Middle-earth is a cinematic world made for the big screen. This time, though, it’s on TV.
“Lord of the Rings: Rings of Power,” premiering this week on Prime Video, is set in the Second Age of Middle-earth, thousands of years before “The Hobbit” and “The Lord of the Rings,” but with familiar communities: humans, dwarves, elves and, of course, Dark Lord Sauron.
“There’s a bit of adventure and a bit of danger,” Markella Kavenagh, the 21-year-old Australian actress who plays harfoot Elanor “Nori” Brandyfoot, told the Daily News.
