TheRingsofPower has added eight new cast members for Season 2.
Prime Video’s epic series Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power is pretty big, but it seems like the production is aiming for an even bigger Season 2 cast-wise. For the upcoming episodes, the streamer announced today eight new cast members that will be featured in recurring roles throughout the season. This is in addition to the other seven cast members unveiled earlier this month, which means we’re getting at least 14 new characters in Season 2.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY The new cast members are Oliver Alvin-Wilson , Stuart Bowman , Gavi Singh Chera , William Chubb , Kevin Eldon , Will Keen , Selina Lo , and Calam Lynch . Prime Video hasn’t disclosed which role each of them will be playing yet, or even which race they’ll represent. Even though the massive cast addition may sound convoluted, if you watch Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power, you know that there’s plenty of space for new members in this story that is massive in scale.
Season 2 will continue to be produced and showrun by J.D. Payne and Patrick McKay, who did a stellar job with the first eight episodes of the series. Since the duo revealed that they have a plan for a five-season arc, with elements presented in the first season that only pay off in the last one, it's a relief to see them return.
None of this has happened by chance, of course. Prime Video invested an insane amount of money in the production of the series, and it shows – from costume and production design, to special effects and ambitious storytelling, the series excels in all areas. The production of Season 1 is reportedly the most expensive batch of episodes ever made in television, with a budget that’s close to $1 billion.
Season 2 of Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power is currently in production, for the first time ever using the United Kingdom's locations. Prime Video is yet to reveal a release date for the upcoming episodes. You can stream Season 1 on Prime Video.
