As part of the fun of San Diego Comic Con 2024, Prime Video were on hand to reveal a new trailer for the second season of The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power, check it out below.

Just a heads up first, the trailer showcases never-before-seen footage of the legendary Rings, magical creatures, glimpses of battles to come, and the Dark Lord Sauron’s growing evil influence across Middle-earth, so if you don’t want to see any potential spoilers, best not to watch it, or scroll down further. If you want to wait and see it all for the first time, you won’t have to wait long as the second season will begin to air on Prime Video on August 29th.

The presentation at Comic Con had Cynthia Addai-Robinson, Robert Aramayo, Maxim Baldry, Morfydd Clark, Ismael Cruz Córdova, Charles Edwards, Trystan Gravelle, Sam Hazeldine, Ema Horvath, Tyroe Muhafidin, Sophia Nomvete, Lloyd Owen, Megan Richards, Charlie Vickers, Benjamin Walker, and Daniel Weyman, all show up on stage, along with the showrunners J.D. Payne and Patrick McKay. There were more than a dozen folks on stage, making it one of the largest single project panels around.

Prime Video have released a synopsis for the show, which is below.

In Season Two of The Rings of Power, Sauron has returned. Cast out by Galadriel, without an army or ally, the rising Dark Lord must now rely on his own cunning to rebuild his strength and oversee the creation of the Rings of Power, which will allow him to bind all the peoples of Middle-earth to his sinister will. Building on Season One’s epic scope and ambition, the new season plunges even its most beloved and vulnerable characters into a rising tide of darkness, challenging each to find their place in a world that is increasingly on the brink of calamity. As friendships are strained and kingdoms begin to fracture, the forces of good—Elves and dwarves, orcs and men, wizards and Harfoots—will struggle ever more valiantly to hold on to what matters to them most of all: each other.

Prime Video have also supplied a few screens from the second season, which you can view below, else enjoy the August 29th premeire.
