TheLordOfTheRings: The RingsOfPower star Ismael Cruz Córdova celebrates the show's diversity in a passionate post. 'It’s about becoming unmissable, undeniable, irrevocably present and rooted, as a people, as beings, as individuals.'
Though it's become the subject of toxic backlash, The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power actor Ismael Cruz Córdova is celebrating the franchise's recent push for diversity. Córdova stars in the Prime Video series as Arondir, a Silvan Elf tasked with watching over the Men descended from allies of Morgoth in the Southlands of Middle-earth. Inspired by J.R.R.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power is set thousands of years before the events of Tolkien's beloved novels, instead adapting material from The Silmarillion and chronicling Middle-earth's Second Age, a time of relative peace that threatens to crumble with the impending rise of the Dark Lord Sauron. Developed by J.D.
As Córdova indicates, The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power's diversity in its casting has been met with a wave of racist backlash from toxic audiences. The Arondir actor opened up about the racist backlash earlier this week, saying that rather than let it disappoint him, it empowered him to fight to land the role and bring that diversity to a franchise that has rarely seen it.
In spite of some racist backlash, Córdova's passionate post about The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power's diversity continues to spotlight his devotion to rising above the toxicity and embracing the positive effects his work on the show brings.
