LORD OF THE RINGS series, and now they've announced that

Dylan

Nazanin Boniadi and Daniel Weyman have joined the cast |
Smith, Charlie Vickers and
Daniel Weyman are rounding up the main cast. Mostly names we've never heard of.
Amazon has already ordered the second season of the new epic
show, the most expensive project ever seen on the small screens (the are
rumours that the whole series will cost more than
|
Tom Budge and Charlie Vickers will also star in the epic saga |
one billion dollars),
but the production will go on a few months hiatus after filming first
two episodes of season one so that the writers could map out the story
and prepare it for season two as well. The only thing that is known of
the plot so far is that it will be set in Middle Earth, exploring new
storylines

Ismael Cruz Cordova and Dylan Smith will also take part in the new series |
preceding
J.R.R. Tolkien’s
The Fellowship of the Ring. We have already announced
Maxim Baldry, Ema Horvath, Markella Kavenagh (as female lead Tyra),
Joseph Mawle (as villain Oren) and
Morfydd Clark (as Elven queen Galadriel) in the cast of the series that will have 20 episodes in the first season.
She's pretty:)
ReplyDeleteShe is!
DeleteA cast of unknowns is a good idea so people will compare it less to the stellar cast of the Jackson trilogy of movies.
ReplyDeleteBut is is kinda offensive to all the amazing famous British and Australian actors who could have been cast in it.
Delete20 episodes is a real treat for a season. We usually only get 8 a season these days.
ReplyDeleteWe've never actually had an epic series with so many episodes, but I'm guessing they will split it into two parts with a break in between.
DeleteProbably. But I'm okay with that!
DeleteHope the break won't be too long.
DeleteI never have heard of any of these actors, but with the price Amazon is paying, I'm sure they're great! They wouldn't invest so much in a series and then hire a lame cast, at least I hope not. I'll be tuning in when it releases.
ReplyDeleteI hope they wouldn't but so far I'm far from impressed :)
DeleteAre you familiar with any of them? Maybe the $1 billion was on special effects and left minimal margin for the actors!
DeleteI've heard only of Joseph Mawle (barely) and Ismael Cordoba (likes to pose naked in photos).
