Amazon renews its Lord of the Rings series for a second season. 

The prequel series, which is currently just starting pre-production, has already been given the go-ahead for season two.

Not much is known of the project, but what is known is that the plot will explore new storylines preceding JRR Tolkien’s The Fellowship of the Ring. The film’s official Twitter account hinted some posting two messages — “One Ring to rule them all, One Ring to find them, One Ring to bring them all, and in the darkness bind them, In the Land of Mordor where the Shadows lie,” and “Welcome to the Second Age.”

Per Variety, the show still hasn’t set its full cast but actors Markella Kavenagh, Will Poulter, and Joseph Mawle, have boarded the project. 

Lord of the Rings series hails from writers JD Payne and Patrick McKay with JA Bayona set to direct multiple episodes.

Lord of the Rings returns to New Zealand. 

The Amazon TV show is returning to the film franchise’s original shooting location. The three hit films made by Peter Jackson were largely shot in New Zealand. 

Produced by Amazon Studios in cooperation with the Tolkien Estate and Trust, The Lord of the Rings television series is to be the most expensive ever made, and is estimated to cost of at least $1 billion.

“We knew we needed to find somewhere majestic, with pristine coasts, forests, and mountains, that also is a home to world-class sets, studios, and highly skilled and experienced craftspeople and other staff,” said showrunners and executive producers J.D. Payne and Patrick McKay.

“As we searched for the location in which we could bring to life the primordial beauty of the Second Age of Middle-earth, we knew we needed to find somewhere majestic, with pristine coasts, forests, and mountains,” the production added.

Production on the series is scheduled to begin in Auckland in the coming months.

Who knew that Sandra Bullock’s life was so interesting?

The Miss Congeniality star has an Oscar to her name for The Blind Side and is regarded as one of Hollywood’s funniest ladies. But as it turns out, there’s a lot more to Sandy B…

Amazon has now decided to develop a new series based loosely on Bullock’s college years.

The 54-year-old actress attended university in North Carolina, where she received a BFA in Drama.

The idea for the series, which has not yet been named, reportedly came from conversations between Bullock and Akiva Goldman, who wrote A Beautiful Mind.

Goldman is set to executive produce the dramedy alongside John Legend. It is expected to take place in the American deep south in the 1980s, where one darkly off-beat young woman defies expectations and sets out in search of love, community, and an identity of her own.

Let’s hope Miss Bullock puts in an appearance!

Amazon dropped the first teaser trailer for the highly anticipated musical finale of Transparent on Wednesday in celebration of Pride Month.

The clip reveals shocking news — Maura Pfefferman is dead. 

Ever since Jeffrey Tambor, who played the titular matriarch, exited the revolutionary Amazon series following allegations of sexual misconduct, fans have been wondering how series creator Jill Soloway would end the Pfefferman’s journey.

The final episode will follow the Pfefferman family — Shelly (Judith Light), Sarah (Amy Landecker), Josh (Jay Duplass), and Ali (Gaby Hoffmann) as they try to come to terms with their loss. 

Amazon’s official synopsis promises “a dazzling two-hour movie musical fantasia. When the Pfeffermans face a life-changing loss, they begin a journey hilarious and melancholy, brazen and bold. As they face this new transition, they confront grief and come together to celebrate connection, joy, and transformation.”

Fan favorites including Kathryn Hahn, Trace Lysette, Cherry Jones, Tig Notaro, Melora Hardin, and Rob Huebel are also set to appear in the finale. 

The musical finale was directed and written by Soloway with original music by her sister and executive producer Faith Soloway.
