Rings of Power Season 2: Deeper Ring Lore

The second season of 'The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power' delves deeper into the lore of Middle-earth, focusing on Sauron's transformation and his manipulation of key characters. Charlie Vickers returns as Sauron, who now appears in the form of Annatar to deceive and control Celebrimbor, leading to the creation of more Rings of Power. The new season highlights Sauron's complex nature, revealing his initial 'good' intentions that eventually turn dark. Celebrimbor's forging of the rings, starting with three for the Elves, sets the stage for significant plot developments.
