Mumbai, January 19 - Amazon Prime Video has revealed the title of its costliest television series, "Lord of The Rings" to be "The Rings of Power". Slated to premiere on September 2, 2022, Prime Video released a video announcing the title and unveiling the first look.

The title announcing video features a narrator's voice reciting the first few lines of the Ring Verse, a poem about the One Ring describing its nature and relation to the other Rings of Power and their master, Sauron. "Three Rings for the Elven-kings under the sky, Seven for the Dwarf-lords in their halls of stone, Nine for Mortal Men doomed to die, One for the Dark Lord on his dark throne, In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie".



The video opens on the camera moving through what appears to be canyons filled with mist. Cut to fire coming down the canyon, a river of molten lava visible below it. As the voiceover begins, the camera pulls back to reveal we are not in a canyon and the molten substance begins to fill up what might be symbols or letters. A wave of water flows over it, cooling it as steam is released.

The molten substance darkens and hardens, to reveal it is some sort of metal with symbols on the side of it. The camera pulls back through the mists to reveal the words “The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power” on a wood background.





Set thousands of years before both The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, "The Rings of Power" will stream weekly starting September 2, and a second season of the series is already in the works. Developed by J. D. Payne, and Patrick McKay, the series stars Cynthia Addai-Robinson, Robert Aramayo, Owain Arthur, Maxim Baldry, Nazanin Boniadi, Morfydd Clark, Ismael Cruz Córdova, Charles Edwards, among others.

Filming of the series took place in New Zealand in February 2020. Prime Video had bought the television rights for "The Lord of the Rings" for a whopping US$250 million in November 2017, making a five-season production commitment worth at least US$1 billion.
