The second season of the American fantasy television series The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power is based on J. R. R. Tolkien's history of Middle-earth, primarily material from the appendices of the novel The Lord of the Rings. Set thousands of years before the novel in the Second Age of Middle-earth, the season depicts the rise of the Dark Lord Sauron and the creation of more Rings of Power. It is produced by Amazon MGM Studios in association with New Line Cinema and with J. D. Payne and Patrick McKay as showrunners.
Amazon acquired the television rights to The Lord of the Rings in November 2017 and made a multi-season commitment for a new series. A second season was ordered in November 2019, and writing began during an extended first-season production break that started due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Amazon announced in August 2021 that filming for the series would move from New Zealand to the United Kingdom starting with the second season. Filming began in October 2022, with Charlotte Brändström, Sanaa Hamri, and Louise Hooper directing. Much of the series' large international cast returned from the first season, as did composer Bear McCreary who started work when production began. Location filming took place around Surrey and Berkshire as well as in the Canary Islands, and filming was completed in early June 2023 amid the 2023 Writers Guild of America strike.
The season premiered on the streaming service Amazon Prime Video on August 29, 2024, with its first three episodes. The other five episodes are being released weekly until October 3.
About The Rings of Power Season 2: Sauron has returned. Cast out by Galadriel, without army or ally, the rising Dark Lord must now rely on his own cunning to rebuild his strength and oversee the creation of the Rings of Power, which will allow him to bind all the peoples of Middle-earth to his sinister will. Building on Season 1’s epic scope and ambition, Season 2 of Amazon’s The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power plunges even its most beloved and vulnerable characters into a rising tide of darkness, challenging each to find their place in a world that is increasingly on the brink of calamity. Elves and dwarves, orcs and men, wizards and Harfoots… as friendships are strained and kingdoms begin to fracture, the forces of good will struggle ever more valiantly to hold on to what matters to them most of all… each other.

Short filmTranscript
00:00My brother gave his life hunting the enemy.
00:16His task is now mine.
00:20Speak your truth, you'll never know.
00:26Stand with me.
00:27Ours was no chance meeting.
00:31Not fate.
00:35Nor destiny.
00:38Ours was the work of something greater.
00:52Each of us.
00:54Everyone.
00:58Must decide who we shall be.
01:06I am not the hero you seek.
01:10Whatever it was you did, be free of it.
01:13One day this will be your kingdom.
01:21Choose not the path of fear, but that of faith.
01:28One thing we can do, better than any creature in all Middle-Earth.
01:34We stay true to each other.
01:37With our hearts, even bigger than our feet.
01:49I can survive this.
01:51You and I.
01:58Stop!
02:00Commander, wait!
02:02No, we keep moving!
02:04Why do you keep fighting?
02:07There is a tempest in me.
02:14You have fought long enough, Galadriel.
02:16Put up your sword.
02:27Without it, what might it be?
