UPDATE: Prime Video’s flagship fantasy series, The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power, is surging in popularity just ahead of its much-anticipated Season 3, which recently wrapped production. The series has climbed back into the top ten streaming charts in approximately 10 countries, showcasing its global appeal.
Launched three years ago, The Rings of Power has captivated audiences with its rich storytelling, inspired by J.R.R. Tolkien’s legendary works. Starring Morfydd Clark as Galadriel and Charlie Vickers as Halbrand/Sauron, the show has successfully aired two seasons, with fans eagerly awaiting the new episodes.
Despite Prime Video’s mixed reputation among fantasy fans—especially following the cancellation of The Wheel of Time—enthusiasm for The Rings of Power remains high. The show is regarded as a flagship property, leading to its impressive streaming success before Season 3 even debuts.
“The series is being treated as a flagship property, and fans have every reason to be optimistic,” said a source close to the production.
While an official release date for Season 3 has yet to be announced, most fans anticipate its return before the end of 2025. Production for the upcoming season began in May, and reports suggest that it has now concluded. If these timelines hold, a premiere in 2026 would not be surprising.
Season 4 is still unconfirmed, but the series is expected to run for at least five seasons due to an agreement with the Tolkien estate. This potential longevity further fuels excitement among the fanbase, who are eager to see how the story unfolds.
As anticipation builds, viewers can catch up on the first two seasons of The Rings of Power streaming now on Prime Video. Stay tuned for more updates on Season 3 and future developments in the series.
With its blend of familiar and new characters, The Rings of Power promises to dive deeper into the lore of Middle-earth, engaging audiences worldwide. This is a developing story, and we will continue to provide updates as more information becomes available.
