Rings of Power: Season 2 will finally give us one of the most powerful characters in Tolkien’s universe

Season 2 of The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power It will arrive on August 29, 2024. But before that, a photo is available with one of the characters most loved by JRR Tolkien fans.

Who are we referring to? Well, to Tom Bombadil, who appeared in this writer’s work in the poem The Adventures of Tom Bombadil (1962). It is also in The Lord of the Rings but Peter Jackson left it out of his film trilogy.

Nor was he in Ralph Bakshi’s 1978 animated film. Now he will have a fair appearance in Season 2 of TLotR: The Rings of Power.

We recommend: The Rings of Power is back with its second season and this is its first trailer.

In this series he is played by actor Rory Kinnear, who previously played Bill Tanner in the last four James Bond films.

Patrick McKay, creative co-producer of the series, when talking about Tom Bombadil, commented that this character ‘[…]It does not have a clear dramatic function…’ that justifies it appearing in a great movie.

McKay commented that this character ‘it’s whimsical and magical, and almost silly’. But he stood out ‘but it also has the wisdom of the times and the music of the spheres and deep emotional wells of history and myth, and its conception and function are linked to Norse myths and has deep roots in European fairy tales’.

The producer admits that it is the first that anyone would cut in a film but they are looking to take advantage of it in Season 2 of TLotR: The Rings of Power.

Patrick McKay and his colleague JD Payne anticipate that Tom Bombadil will meet The Stranger, played by Daniel Weyman.

In the story Bombadil arrives in Rhûn, which was once a paradise, and is now devastated. It is after he arrives to meet The Stranger in Season 2 of TLotR: The Rings of Power.

He wishes to prevent what happened in Rhûn from happening again. All we have to do is wait and see what the only being in Middle Earth immune to the power of the One Ring will do.
