The Rings of Power Season 2 Interview: Morfydd Clark, Benjamin Walker, Daniel Weyman & More

We’re on the precipice of a new season for The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power, and with it comes a world that expands further into . Tolkien’s lore than ever before. At San Diego Comic-Con this year the Rings of Power panel brought with it a new trailer that shows a Middle-earth that’s been thrown into chaos. The end of Season 1 finally revealed Halbrand (Charlie Vickers) to be Sauron in disguise, and Season 2 seems to be fully leaning into that reveal and Sauron’s plans for forging the One Ring. In the trailer, there is much discussion about the titular rings of the series. With the revelation of Sauron’s return now exposed by Galadriel (Morfydd Clark), it seems like we are finally getting a darker story from this series as the Dark Lord crafts his rings of power to manipulate all of Middle-earth. We caught up at San Diego Comic-Con with some of the stars of the series to dive deeper into the series to come, speaking with Morfydd Clark, Benjamin Walker, who plays Gil-galad, Daniel Weyman, who plays The Stranger, and Megan Richards, who plays Poppy about what we can look forward to with Season 2 of The Rings of Power. Clark teased a little bit about how Galadriel has been affected by the Sauron reveal, and we can see in the trailer that she confesses to Gil-galad that she’s been deceived by him. Walker discussed that this would be a time in history when peacetime “breaks down and the gloves come off.“ Weyman teased what it was like to work with Rory Kinnear as Tom Bombadil, and both he and Richards discussed navigating the harsh lands of Rhûn this season. #theringsofpower #thelordoftherings #MorfyddClark For interviews, movie reviews, and more visit FOLLOW US ON SOCIAL
