Sauron is definitely back in the Rings of Power season 2 teaser

As Amazon Studios’ teaser trailer for the second season of The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power has one thing to say: Sauron is back and it’s everyone’s problem.

The teaser checks in with most of our season 1 characters: Elrond, Galadriel, Prince Durin, Arondir, Adar, and even the Stranger. In true ‘teaser’ fashion, it’s about specific plot details, but a cascade of gold rings – maybe nine? – and a strikingly bejeweled ring in the hands of King Durin hints at the season’s arc.

Rings of powerThe first had quite a few scenes to do, as Sauron built his way into the trust of the elven leadership and set his sights on forging their three rings of power. Season 2 looks to continue with the two other sets of rings – the seven for the dwarves “in their stone halls” and “nine for mortal men doomed to die.”

Also: There is a big eagle! He better talk like the ones in the books because I won’t stand for another wave of “Why didn’t they just ride into Mordor with eagles?” I put in my time!

Amazon hasn’t announced a release date for the new season, but since it’s set to release sometime in 2024, a fall release date — similar to the first season’s premiere in September — seems likely.
