Galadriel and Adar's Shared Adversary Sparked by Cast Members in The Rings of Power
A Wild Collaboration Unfolds
Get ready Middle-earth fanatics, for a twisted and shattered friendship unfolds as the enemy of your enemy becomes your uneasy comrade in the new season of The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power.
The aftermath of the first season has left Galadriel, Morfydd Clark's fantastical Elven warrior, forever battered. Her chilling brush with Sauron, unmasked as the human Halbrand, has left her questioning her very existence. "Now she's got to learn that she's not just fighting for herself, but for every part of Middle-earth," Clark confides. "She's got to ensure that wound heals while battling this beast."
Adar, once an agent of the Dark Lord, now played by Sam Hazeldine, also finds himself shaken following the return of Sauron. Surprisingly, Adar isn't exactly dancing for joy over the Dark Lord's second coming. "Adar isn't intrinsically evil," Hazeldine muses. "He's more of a victim, forged under the heavy weight of deceit and transformed into what he is now."
Given their shared antipathy toward Sauron, it appears that an unlikely alliance between Adar and Galadriel seems to brew, hinted at by trailers for the new season. While neither is particularly fond of one another, their common enemy has forced them to share the discomfort.
This precarious alliance serves as the backdrop for an intriguing dance of power with Sauron orchestrating the shadows. The question remains: can both Galadriel and Adar see through the veil, or will they, too, fall victim to Sauron's enchanting allure?
The Lord of the Rings: Rings of Power will return to stream on Amazon Prime Video on August 29. Get ready to unravel the secrets of Sauron's machinations and the fate of these two unlikely associates in the weeks to come.
