The drama version of "The Lord of the Rings" is officially named "The Lord of the Rings: Ring of Strength"! Let's take a look at the pilot trailer for handmade and unused special effects
It is worth mentioning that the pilot video is all shot in real action, and no special effects are used!
Because many of the elements in the show were handmade, Prime Video also chose the title "Handmade" — pouring the molten metal liquid into a handmade wooden mold engraved with letters to complete it, and filming the entire process in slow motion using a video camera. The narration is accompanied by Tolkien's Poem of the Supreme Ring!
Although this pilot video content only reveals the full title of the play and has no other substance, the subtitle "Ring of Strength" points to the main line of the drama, the core of the epic story of the Second Age - the casting of the Lord of the Rings.
The show will show for the first time the heroic legends of middle-earth in the history of the Second Age, set thousands of years before the events of Tolkien's "The Hobbit" and "Lord of the Rings", the powerful forces forged, the glorious rise of the kingdom and the fallen to dust, the unexpected heroes are tested, hope is hanging in the line, and Tolkien's most powerful villain is bound to darken all the world.
The series begins with a period of relative peace, focusing on a group of characters who are both familiar and unfamiliar. Confront the long-standing fear that evil has returned to Middle-earth. From the darkest depths of the Misty Mountains, to the magnificent forests of Lynton, the elven capital, to the exciting island nation of Numenor, to the farthest places on the map...
Casts include: Shea Adey Robinson, Robert Alamoyo, Owen Arthur, Murfield Clarke, Max Baudley, Nazanin Boniati and others.
It is reported that the first season of "The Lord of the Rings: Ring of Strength" has a total of 8 episodes, and will land on Prime Video on Friday, September 2, and will play one episode per week. It will be broadcast simultaneously in more than 240 countries and multiple languages around the world, and has been renewed for a second season!
This series, which spent as much as $465 million in production costs in the first season, really satisfies everyone's appetite, but many netizens who watched the pilot video said that the voice of the narrator OS is really bad.
