During the Super Bowl, Amazon Studios debuted the first teaser trailer for their highly anticipated upcoming series “The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power,” which you can now watch below. First footage from the epic TV series, slated to premiere Sept. 2, takes place during the Second Age of J.R.R. Tolkien’s epic tale “The Lord of the Rings” – thousands of years before the events of “The Lord of the Rings” or “The Hobbit.”
This first teaser drills down the when of this “Lord of the Rings” series with a story set “Before the King,” “Before the Fellowship,” and “Before the Ring.” However, just because this is a prequel series doesn’t mean no characters from Peter Jackson’s films or the books will appear.

Elrond (Robert Aramayo) and Galadriel (Morfydd Clark) are two of the nearly immortal elves in “The Rings of Power” who appear in this trailer, although these versions are much younger and different than those we know from “The Lord of the Rings.” Amazon has been tight-lipped about who will be playing whom, but the cast members and characters who appear in the trailer include Owain Arthur as Prince Durin IV, Sophia Nomvete as Princess Disa, Ismael Cruz Córdova as Arondir, and Charlie Vickers as Halbrand.
