news culture “It looks fantastic!” : This new Lord of the Rings project has fans dreaming, already more hype than the Rings of Power?
Finally, when we get out of the Lord of the Rings games and the six Peter Jackson films, it’s clear that if we’re a fan of JRR Tolkien’s universe, we haven’t had much to eat. But things have accelerated in recent years and license exploitation is well underway.
Summary
- The Lord of the Rings is far from over with us
- For Eorlingas!
- A boiling hot audience
The Lord of the Rings is far from over with us
We will not return The management of the rights to Tolkien’s work is complicated in this respectbut one thing is certain: Lord of the Rings as well as all the stories that take place on Arda a huge boost in popularity. New translations were made all over the world, including in France, and the rights holders made this known their intention to exploit the license. The series started The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power
Created from attachments of the Lord of the Rings (Amazon did not acquire the rights to the Silmarillion), the series was a hit, but many fans did not find it. For a segment of the public, the pace is too slow, the paraphrases too numerous, and We would be in front of a product fanfiction with hundreds of millions of dollars. For others this is not a problem as it is a free interpretation and not a pure and harsh adaptation. In any case Season 2 is already expected at the turnt, but it’s not the only customization we’ll be entitled to for years to come.
We found out last March Warner Bros. Discovery had signed a long-term contract to produce new films in Tolkien’s universe. The company didn’t even try to hide its desire to bring Peter Jackson back Andy Serkis, memorable in his role as Gollumimmediately stated that he was in on the condition that Fran Walsh, Peter Jackson and Phillipa Boyens were involved.
For Eorlingas!
These projects are still very obscure, but one thing will come out from April 12, 2024 ! It’s about named animated film The Lord of the Rings: War of the Rohirrimwhich will be directed by Kenji Kamiyama for Warner and New Line Cinema. Known for surveillance Ghost in the Shell: Stand alone complex and directed the animated film Ghost in the Shell: SAC Solid State SocietyKenji Kamiyama is currently working with Phillipa Boyens, who is serving as executive producer.
according to sort, The Lord of the Rings: War of the Rohirrim take place 183 years before the War of the Ringat a time when the king reigned Helm Hammerhand. The latter must face the incessant Wulf, who leads the Dunlendings and seeks to avenge his father’s death. Yes, we know Helm is is said to have died more than 250 years ago Sauron’s kick…
An unexpected attack by Wulf, a cunning and ruthless Dunlending lord seeking vengeance for the death of his father, forces Helm and his people to a daring last stand at the ancient fortress of Hornburg – a mighty fortress that would come to be known as Helm’s Deep should. Hera, Helm’s daughter, finds herself in dire straits and must summon all her willpower to lead the resistance against a deadly foe determined to destroy her utterly.
An extensive program supported by an impressive cast, and a narrator that fans of Peter Jackson films know very well. In addition to Brian Cox (Helm Hammerhand), Gaia Wise (Hera), Luke Pasqualino (Wulf), Lorraine Ashbourne, Yazdan Qafouri, Benjamin Wainwright and Michael Wildman, we find what we are looking for Miranda Otto, who is none other than the actress who plays Éowyn. She wasn’t supposed to appear on screen, of course, but she’s the one who will tell this story.
A boiling hot audience
Recently, the SerieUpdateFR Twitter account reshared one of the concept art published by Variety in 2022. If the mistake of presenting them as “first previews” was quickly corrected by other users of the network, this became the case this did not dampen the enthusiasm for the production. Many messages indicate that animation is a real lever for making “Craziness” with the Lord of the Rings while others say “The real cinema is coming” or “It looks fantastic” !
If the excitement seems to have come out of nowhere more than a year after the latest information, it’s because we recently learned that The Lord of the Rings: War of the Rohirrim serums premiered in June during the Annecy International Animation Film Festival. So we should finally see the first animated images of the feature filmwhich should really boost the hype!
