Common card · No. 296722

"Adar" is the third episode of the first season of the American fantasy television series The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power, which is based on J. R. R. Tolkien's history of Middle-earth. It was written by Jason Cahill and Justin Doble, and directed by Wayne Che Yip. The series is set thousands of years before Tolkien's novel The Lord of the Rings (1954–55), during the Second Age of Middle-earth. This episode introduces some of the story's key cultures: the High Men of Númenor and the Orcs. Each culture was defined through designs, dialects, and music, and introduced at a time of change for their people. A lot of focus was put on the design of Númenor, which had not been seen in previous Tolkien adaptations. Filming for the first season took place in New Zealand, and work on episodes beyond the first two began in January 2021. Production wrapped for the season in August 2021. The design of the Orcs' Warg was based on chihuahuas. "Adar" premiered on the streaming service Amazon Prime...
