Amazon Prime Video has officially renewed The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power for Season 3, with the announcement made earlier today, February 13, 2025.
Pre-production is already underway, and filming is set to begin this spring at Shepperton Studios in the UK. The renewal comes after the Season 2 finale aired in October 2024, and the show has been a significant success for Prime Video, with Season 2 being the platform’s most-watched returning season by hours watched, despite a reported 60% drop in total minutes watched compared to Season 1.
Season 3 will feature a major time jump from Season 2 and will include Sauron beginning to craft the iconic One Ring. Directors Charlotte Brändström, Sanaa Hamri, and Stefan Schwartz are slated to helm multiple episodes, with Brändström also serving as an executive producer. The showrunners, J.D. Payne and Patrick McKay, are joined by other executive producers, including Lindsey Weber, Justin Doble, Kate Hazell, and Brändström herself.
There have been some misleading posts on X claiming the show was canceled due to diversity-related funding issues, but these claims are false and not supported by official sources. The renewal aligns with the showrunners’ five-season plan, though viewership trends will likely determine if the series continues beyond Season 3. Given the current trajectory and Amazon’s investment in the franchise, fans can expect Season 3 to potentially premiere in late 2026, considering production timelines and the gap between previous seasons.

  • Liberians showed massive love, proving his music’s deep resonance in West Africa. He posted: “LIBERIA, YOU HAVE MY HEART.”
  • This marked a historic moment for cross-border Afrobeats unity.

Zaama Disco Homecoming
