Amazon Prime Video have announced today that two episodes of The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power will air on September 1st and 2nd- Depending on your time zone. Following on from the huge and highly anticipated premiere, episodes will then drop weekly and singularly. That’s right, we’re being gifted with a 2 hour premiere to celebrate our return to Middle-Earth. Don’t worry about the time zones, the episodes are launching at the same time around the world, so that everyone can experience them together. Although, we still recommend being cautious on social media… 2am in the UK isn’t exactly ideal for many of us.
We start our journey at the start of September with episodes 1 and 2. The finale of season one will then air on October 14th.

Are you guys ready? The countdown has officially begun. The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power will take fans back in time to an age that we haven’t explored on screen before. Set in the Second Age of Middle-Earth, the series will focus on events that took place thousands of years before Frodo Baggins first looked at The One Ring. Following an epic ensemble cast of characters, both new and familiar, The Rings of Power will show us fantastical wonders and dark evils that are slowly resurfacing…
The multi-season drama will launch on Prime Video in more than 240 countries and territories worldwide on Friday, September 2, with new episodes available weekly. Are you excited for The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power? Let us know your thoughts in the comments.
