The short version
- Prime Video made a major investment in The Rings of Power when it acquired the rights to the source material from the Tolkien estate, even committing to multiple seasons upfront.
- S3 is set seven years after the events of S2 and opens when the war between the elves and Sauron is at its height.
- Per the official synopsis: In season three, Middle-earth is at war.
What happened
Five years have passed since the fall of Eregion. Sauron’s armies have marched across the whole of the world, conquering all in their path.
Why it matters
