    Lord of the Rings: Is it making a return in 2024?
    The Lord of the Rings is holding a widespread history in film, with the legendary trilogy of Peter Jackson turning 20 years old recently and the Hobbit trilogy released in the theatres a decade ago. Since that time, there have been several attempts to bring The Lord of the Rings back again, however, 2024 is going to turn out to be the year when the franchise returns in a big way.

    The film industry has been going through some key transitions with the trend of comic book movies beginning to slow down and the major studios starting to seek out new franchises and stories for taking their place.
    Amazon's and Warner Bros's answer to this important change is to be embracing the Middle-Earth world which has been created by J.R.R Tolkien in his Lord of the Rings books.

    Will Lord of the rings return in 2024?

    There are some projects of Lord of the Rings which will be released this year, with the announcement and development of new shows and films being almost certain.

    One of the major ways through which The Lord of the Rings will be making a return in 2024 is via The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power, the Prime Video series. The show made its debut in the year 2022, awakening a lot of spirited conversations and debates after its release. Season one of the show was described as one of the most costly seasons of television that has been produced ever, with Amazon spending an approximate $55 million on each part of the debut season consisting of eight episodes. In addition, the show has led to a partition among the fans of the Lord of the Rings. Its adaptation as well as depiction of Middle Earth's Second Age has portrayed several newer ideas and divergence from the books. Despite the severe negativity that was prevalent in the series' online discussion, The Rings of Power was a strong hit for Prime Video, more than guaranteeing a second season's development.

    Lord of the Rings: Second season

    The second season's filming was completed in 2023 summer, before the beginning of the SAG strike. There is still no official release date for The Rings of Power, however, it might be released somewhere around 2024, in the fall or summer.
