The original had two elements that I’m a huge fan of: extreme violence and satire. And I think it is such a ripe paradigm for satirizing this moment that we’re in, with the police industrial complex. There’s so much to play with there, so I can’t wait. The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power In conversation with Screen Rant, Morfydd Clark suggested the third season of The Rings of Power will “explore Galadriel’s backstory even further.” It was wonderful to be able to explore Galadriel’s backstory even further back, and how full of joy she was before. We explore her in a part of her life where consequences haven’t happened yet. I feel, in life, there’s this moment where you’re like, ‘Oh, the decisions I make create the world that I’m going to be in.’ It was really fun to explore some naivety with her, and she’s also kind of freeing herself from the clutches of the darkness.
