LOTR: The Rings of Power Season 2: Cast, Plot, Release Date
Everything We Know About "LOTR: The Rings of Power" Season 2

A release date has not been confirmed for the show's second season. Season one of "The Rings of Power" filmed for 18 months, and season two began filming on 3 Oct., 2022, but the second season's filming process seems to have been much shorter; in July, Variety confirmed that season two had wrapped filming shortly before the SAG-AFTRA strike.
While there's still lots of post-production work to do, it's likely that we'll still see "The Rings of Power" at some point in 2024. In an October 2022 interview with The Hollywood Reporter, showrunner Patrick McKay noted that he anticipated working on season two for "another couple years." That same year, Amazon Studios head Jennifer Salke provided more hope to fans eager to see the next season. "We want the shortest time possible between seasons, but we want to keep the bar just as high," she told Variety. "So it'll take what it takes. But there's been some urgency around moving quickly."
