The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power is heading to San Diego Comic-Con for season 2. The news comes from Deadline, who confirmed that the Prime Video series will be taking over the infamous Hall H on Friday, July 26th. The panel is set to run from 11:05 a.m.-12:15 p.m.. And it will feature the series’ showrunners J.D. Payne and Patrick McKay alongside members of the cast. Fans can also expect an inside look at season 2.
But that’s not all that’s in store for The Rings of Power at SDCC. Right after the panel at 1:45 p.m. at Venue 808 in San Diego, there’s set to be a fan meet-and-greet with the cast. That will be held with the official Lord of the Rings fan site TORn (TheOneRing.net) alongside a display of curated collection of costumes and props from season 2.
The Rings of Power has been gearing up in the last couple weeks for season 2. They’ve released a teaser trailer, dropped a bunch of new images, and saw the embargo go up for season 2 set visits. It was also revealed that some cast members like Nazanin Boniadi, who played Bronwyn, wouldn’t be returning for season 2. Her character will apparently not be recast and Boniadi shared on social media that she’s stepping away “to focus solely on the #WomanLifeFreedom uprising in Iran and to advocate for the people in my homeland who have been risking everything for freedom.”
