Amazon's "Lord of the Rings" Season 1 filming officially wrapped up on set

Today (August 4), Amazon's "Lord of the Rings" series official Twitter announced that the filming of the first season of the series has officially finished. The official also shared the set photos of the crew behind the scenes, thanking them for their work, and invited everyone to experience the story of Middle-earth in the Second Age. The first season has a total of 8 episodes, filmed in New Zealand, with a production cost of about 465 million US dollars, and will be broadcast on Amazon Prime Video on September 2 next year.

The Lord of the Rings series is directed by J.A. Bayona and Wayne Yeh, and is produced by John D. Payne & Patrick McKay. It stars Robert Aramayo, Owen Arthur, Nazanin Boniadi, Tom Budge, Ishmael Cruz Cordova, Joseph Mahler and others.

Set in the Second Age, thousands of years before the film versions of The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, The Lord of the Rings series will take viewers to a time when powerful nations have been formed, nations have risen and fallen, humble heroes have endured hardships, hopes hang on a thread, and Tolkien's most powerful villain wants to drag the world into darkness. Starting in a relatively peaceful era, the series tells the story of a group of new and old faces facing the resurgence of evil in Middle-earth. From the darkest depths of the Misty Mountains, to the magnificent forests of Lindon, the capital of the elves, to the breathtaking Empire of Númenor, and to the farthest reaches of the map, these kingdoms and characters will leave legends and be sung after death.
