Post Description

The show is projected to progress at least five seasons[5][6] and some 50-hours of TV[7], and - possibly with a spinoff - over a period of eight to ten years;[8][9] and, as of November 2019, the first two seasons have been greenlit.[10] In January 2020, Amazon announced that the first season would consist of eight episodes.[11] The Tolkien Estate will reportedly have veto-power "on strategy and on vision"[12] and will maintain the "main shape of the Second Age".[13]

The plot will cover events of the Second Age. A preliminary interactive map, featured on the Amazon Prime Video site,[14] pointed towards the show being set in the mid-Second Age, circa SA 1500-1701. However, characters from a much later period in the Second Age, such as Elendil and Isildur will also appear. The two periods will be condensed into a single timeline, to prevent jumps in time.[7] Both periods do not focus on an adventure story, but rather Machiavellian drama.[7]

The earlier of the two epochs is centered around the forging of the Rings of Power in Eregion, whereby Sauron (disguised as Annatar) convinces Celebrimbor and the Gwaith-i-Mírdain guild to forge Rings of Power, against the advice of Galadriel and Gil-galad: in some versions of the story, Annatar even convinces the conflicted Celebrimbor to lead a coup that ousts Galadriel.[15] A leaked story synopsis[16] also points in this direction, as well as towards concurrent events in other realms of Middle-earth, namely Moria, and Lindon: led by Gil-galadand Durin III, respectively, they are trying to maintain their foreign relations with Eregion as it falls under Annatar's influence, and then fending his forces off during the War of Sauron and the Elves.[15] Many of these plot-lines will have to play-out in isolation before the war causes them to intersect, and as such as said to have separate units producing them.[17]

However, the inclusion of Isildur and Elendil indicates the Akallabêth, set in the late Second Age, will be concurrently adapted, likely up to the events of the War of the Last Alliance and possibly the Disaster of the Gladden Fields.

While time-jumps were once rumored,[18][19][17] and even experimented with in early development,[20] the final series features a condensed timeline, with executive Jennifer Salke indicating it is "one big series"[21] and that season one will be "building the infrastructure of what will sustain the whole series."[22]
