That promo image makes me wish S1 wasn't so wretched. Vickers was very good in his role, and this would have got me excited in an alternate world. I thought his role was over after S1 since Annatar was already cast

I saw the first seasons months after it streamed, so the slower pace didn't bother me. Really liked it for what it was, so hope they can build upon it for an even better second season.

He was never cast separately. That was a foiler created by production to find out who was leaking info.

Production Members of The Rings of Power Season 2 “Testing the Waters & Publics Reaction” to Multiple Forms of Sauron - Fellowship of Fans

As mentioned in our video discussing the wrong scoops we were able to confirm that Gavi Singh Chera will not be playing Sauron and instead will play a character from a new race/ group of peoples that we did not see in season 1 thanks to updates from new sources that have helped tremendously.

The first season was a largely enjoyable affair that was primarily hampered by some weak writing. This, at least, looks to be a much more eventful and hopefully thrilling season.

Woodsman/sexy Sauron is presumably still there as the dark lord. He can shapeshift whenever he wants at this time and I doubt he's just going to chill in full armor all the time.

Aw man I wanted to see the blue wizards!

Anyway I'm interested, S1 was a great return to middle earth. Strange they're doing Annatar but it seems he will entice the ring making elf singularly whom desired to make something great, and use him to forge the rings for the other races.

Really enjoyed S1, and can't wait for S2. That reminds me, I should pick up the Silmarillion again. I was really enjoying it prior to getting sidetracked with work.

Looks fantastic. S1 was my favorite show that year and this looks just as good. I thought for sure this would be out later in the year as well. I'm going on a media blackout with this season, and I'm also going to avoid internet discussions in general with LotR in general. I didn't think the Star Wars fandom could be overtaken in toxic behavior, yet here we are.

How is Sauron going to fool the elves if they already know that Vickers was Sauron all along, especially Galadriel?

I came around on Season 1 by the end so I hope this can continue that momentum.

Didn't care much for season 1 by the time it wrapped but I'm hoping this season can more of what I was hoping for.

Wait so is Vickers modern Sauron and Annatar played by someone else? That elf form looks so bad.
