Despite such an extensive list of actors and actresses, those responsible say that there are still several names to be confirmed for some of the most important roles in the series. Remember that the direction of the first two episodes will be the responsibility of the Spanish filmmaker Juan Antonio Bayona, who in turn will participate as executive producer with Belén Atienza.
As we say, filming will start this next February, still without an approximate release date on Amazon Prime Video, and will address the Second Age of the Middle Earth Sun, that is, the so-called Dark Age, where events related to the forge of the Rings of Power.
