The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Powerdirector teases fans about the upcoming series and says it is more action-packed than anything they have seen before.
J.A. Bayona said in an interview withEmpirethatThe Rings of Powerseries is not even a television show.
“The Rings Of Power is not television. It’s a new form we’re creating here,” the director explained.
The Lord Of The Rings Prequel Will Be More Exciting
Showrunners Patrick McKay and J.D. Payne also mentioned in an interview, perMovieWeb, that the upcomingprequel is differentfrom Peter Jackson’sThe Lord of the Ringsmovie trilogy. They said the series will have more fight scenes than any show they have watched.
“The siege at Helm’s Deep is so iconic and amazing that it was like, ‘What’s a different thing that we can do that still feels like Middle-earth but is unique for this story?” Payne said.
“The show has a lot of action in it – more so than any television or streaming show that we’ve seen. Every episode has set pieces, creatures, battles, and white-knuckle fights to the death. But instead of having 10,000 Orcs fighting 10,000 men, what’s it like to have one Orc in your face, in your kitchen? What’s it like trying to kill an Orc when you’ve never killed an Orc before?” McKay added.
