Rings of Power Season 2 set photos tease the classic Lord of the Rings character
Set photos leaked from the sets at Bray Studios in Berkshire in the UK confirm that more Elven sets are indeed on the menu for Season 2, with one location even hinting at one of the most important characters in JRR Tolkien’s Legendarium teases. If you zoom in closer on the set photos below, you can see a statue that seems to commemorate a former king of the Noldor, the artisan Feanor, the elf who made the Silmarils. The hammer the statue holds in one hand while surrounded by three gems – the exact number of Silmarils – is a dead mark.
While Amazon actually can’t customize material from The Silmarillion or Unfinished Storiessince the studio only has the rights to the Lord of the rings‘ Attachments, The Rings of Power Season 1 alluded to many of the events recorded in Tolkien’s stories of the First Age. The series began with a prologue covering the Two Trees of Valinor and the War of Wrath against Morgoth, while later episodes alluded to the fall of Gondolin and Glorfindel and the fall of Beleriand. Reference has been made to the Silmarils themselves, and since Celebrimbor is a descendant of House Feanor it would make sense for his realm to have a memorial to the first of his house. Celebrimbor even uses Feanor’s Legendary Hammer in Season 1!
Some on the internet are already speculating that the monument’s existence, as well as the other references to the character, could mean that a Season 2 Feanor flashback is on the way. But again, this is a tricky situation regarding the rights to adapt the first-age material. At the moment those rights don’t even live with the Embracer Group, but with the Tolkien estate itself. Feanor’s arrival in the series will ultimately depend on Amazon being able to get special clearance from the estate. For now, we’re just assuming that this memorial will only exist as a fun Easter egg for Tolkien fans and a nifty bit of world building.
