the cast of the rings of power for TIME magazine; september 2022

I don't know who needs to know this, but there's a bunch of cast glamour shots that got posted to the Prime portal and it's A LOT

The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power (2022–), 1x03: Poppy continues to be the most relatable character

Some breaking news from Fellowship of Fans this morning that "Rings of Power" has been renewed for a 3rd season!!! :D They were alerted that the latest issue of Production Weekly posted the show is looking for crew members to help work on season 3 which will film in 2024 and have a scan from the magazine as the 2nd picture here (along with a list of other shows/movies). Still need to wait on Amazon and the trades to announce but Deadline had already reported when the writers strike started that the show had already started early planning for season 3. Now that the writers strike is over they are back to work on it and any possible reshoots for season 2. Even though the show got a 5 season commitment order they still have to formally renew it each time but 3 is in the works.

One of Tolkien's Greatest Tragedies made Right

In all of Tolkien's works, we only ever get three female Hobbits that are in any way described in detail. Lobelia Sackville-Baggins, Belladonna Took Baggins, and Rosie Cotton (Gamgee).

One is an insidious relative and the only woman in the entirety of The Hobbit book. The second is only ever mentioned. The last is barely mentioned beyond Samwise's desire to get home. Tolkien's list of women has never been robust, but the women of the shire are practically non-existent beyond annoying relatives, mothers, and "back home" crushes. The women of Tolkien have always suffered under careful eye. While yes, Tolkien's women are nearly always incredibly powerful, beautiful, strong, and resilient, they are quite literally the exceptional women. We never see the female portrayed in the mundane. Arwen is almost entirely portrayed within an appendice, and Melian, Galadriel, and Varda/Elbereth, while described as groundbases of influence, intimidation, and power, are rarely seen in an active way. Yet, if human, Maiar, and Elven ladies have been under-represented, Dwarven women and Hobbit women have been all but entirely omitted.

My admiration and love of the professor's works are endless and boundless, but this is, indeed, an incredible tragedy.... that has finally been remedied!

Elanora "Nori" Brandyfoot and Poppy Proudfellow are like music to my ears. Yes! Show me the little hobbit ladies running through the meadows, let's see these little women shape a big earth. I want it all.

(For those waiting to discuss the utter perfection that is Lady Disa, she obviously deserves her own post which I will remedy tomorrow).

With that said, I'm excited to see how Hobbit culture is portrayed beyond the realm of the shire. We know that migratory Hobbits existed, but its interesting to see them move as a tactic of avoidance, rather than trade. Hiding away as a means of protection, never staying too long to avoid discovery. Being shy of traders also makes this absolutely necessary as their only means of survival is traveling to a new area that will allow for hunting and foraging, rather than farming or trading.

I've seen much said about their humor, but it felt good and genuine. It's also nice to see that mistrust of strangers wasn't a strictly a 3rd age problem.

I'd love to see how the Harfoots begin to set down roots, create and facilitate trade between other Hobbits and hopefully see more adventurous cottage-girl hobbits. The idea that Nori Brandyfoot, or at least her kin, might somehow down the line be connected with Sadoc Brandybuck? If that is the implication, it would be a very fun Easter egg, indeed.

I'm stoked to see how these ladies interact with whatever Maiar they've found and inherited, be it Gandalf, Balrog, or Bombadil himself. I'm excited for these little hobbit girls to see the world they've always hidden from, and it is about time too.

The most relatable character of The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power (2022–) 1x01-02: Poppy Proudfellow

Major update about "Rings of Power" season 2 as the cast are now doing ADR/Automated Dialogue Replacement (FOF added on to this tweet that they had a typo). That means the actors re-record their lines now in editing to help fix the sound. This is allowed even with the writers and actors strike going on in the US as there is a loophole many shows are doing as by UK law the actors who are a part of the UK actors union Equity have to still work by the UK contract even if they are also part of the US actors union SAG-AFTRA. It's how "House of the Dragon" and other American shows that film in the UK and a few other countries are still filming. As far as I know almost all the main cast are part of Equity but not sure for Ismael since he's American. It all depends if he's part of Equity too but they might just wait to redo his ADR, if it's needed, when the actors strike ends. So the show is pretty far along in editing if they've gotten to the ADR stage and still on track for s2 to be out sometime next year. :)
