The Lord of the Rings is experiencing a remarkable resurgence in popularity, fueled by both new releases and the continued success of Prime Video's 'The Rings of Power.' The future looks bright for the franchise, with Warner Bros. expanding its holdings and the Tolkien Estate granting new rights for adaptations.

It has been an amazing year for The Lord of the Rings, with multiple releases and even more exciting news. With 2024 being such a thrilling year for the franchise, it stands to reason that even more good things are coming up. If 2024 tells fans anything, it is that viewers can expect lots more Lord of the Rings on their screens in the years to come. There are few studios as huge as Warner Bros. ', which has recently expanded upon The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings trilogies with further additions.

This move sets up a whole decade of content to come, nestled between various seasons of Prime Video's The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power. The Rings of Power season 1 launched in 2022 to critical acclaim, creating controversy around its breaks from canon and setting online forums alight with discussion. In general, J.R.R. Tolkien's works are seeing a huge resurgence, which can only be a good thing for Tolkien's legacy and the Tolkien Estate. With Tolkien book sales up in 2024, it's clear that Lord of the Rings is in a good place, regardless of any controversy. The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power made it known, in its second season, that the Tolkien estate was granting one-off rights to parts of the legendarium. This has huge consequences for The Lord of the Rings franchise as a whole. If this is possible, anything is, in terms of adaptation. Many fans lament the lack of a Silmarillion adaptation, although many also wouldn't like to see it adapted. The Rings of Power is almost as good as a Silmarillion adaptation itself, mixing content from this Tolkien classic with its own original material. Amazon has the rights to The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings novel
