A new trailer for Amazon Prime's The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power season 2 teases a darker tone, larger battles, improved CGI, and the potential appearance of iconic evil creatures like Shelob, Balrogs, and the Nazgûl.
The trailer was unveiled at San Diego Comic-Con 2024. It shows Sauron, plotting his return by forging the Rings of Power.
Based on Tolkien's appendices, the series explores the Second Age, condensing the lore into a TV format.
The trailer hints at the potential return of Shelob, the giant spider, the Nine Nazgûl or Ringwraiths.
Sauron's new form was also revealed for the first time at Comic-Con.
Screenrant.com also notes that the trailer may replace the iconic "I am no man" line from The Lord of the Rings with a darker alternative.
