This new trailer will showcase actual footage from the show, but don't expect too much, as it's confirmed to only be a "teaser".
Amazon previously released the opening credits for the show, which revealed the official title. Showrunners, JD Payne and Patrick McKay, also confirmed this series will be set during Middle-Earth’s second age - thousands of years before Peter Jackson’s movies.
But it won't be too disconnected to the movies, as several characters are expected to appear:
Amazon’s purchase of Tolkien’s property made airways in 2017, with the rights alone toppling $250 million. Season 1 of the show reportedly carries a price tag of $465 million, making it the most expensive season of any TV show produced.
The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power is coming to Amazon Prime on September 2nd.
