]]>J R R Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings trilogy will be coming to the small screen for the first time, in the near future. Amazon has reportedly paid £250 million for the rights and will air it on their platform.
The paradise island thriller is reported to be coming back to our screens in the form of a TV adaptation. Amy Seimetz is working on the project and is said to be planning a prequel to the events of the movie.
Based on the graphic novel of the same name, the 2009 action movie has since become something of a cult classic. The series is set to air on HBO, so we have high hopes that it will follow in the high-status footsteps of Chernobyl and Game of Thrones.
The Dark Crystal TV adaptation will land on Netflix August 30. Starring the likes of Taron Egerton, Lena Headey, and Helena Bonham Carter, the 1982 dark fantasy film will receive an A-list makeover.
Gremlins: Secrets of the Mogwai will take place in 1920’s China and is due to land later this year. Intrigued? We know we are.

]]>It will be an Amazon production
The Tolkien recreation will be produced by Amazon Studios. They have signed a reported $250 million rights contract back in November last year.
It will be on its way by next year
We don’t know the official release date, but we know that the contract requires them to begin production within at least two years. This means they have until November next year at the absolute latest to start filming.
There will be 5 seasons
As part of the $250 million rights deal, Amazon has committed to producing 5 seasons of the show.
The show will be a prequel to Lord of the Rings
We know nothing about the script or plot, but we do know that the show will be a prequel to LOTR. A rumor suggests that it could focus on the life of a young Aragorn, but we will have to wait for more announcements to confirm.
Ian McKellen is interested in playing Gandolf (again)
While there have been no official cast announcements, Ian McKellan has expressed an interest in reprising the role. He said:
“I haven’t said yes because I haven’t been asked. But are you suggesting that someone else is going to play it? Gandalf is over 7000 years old, so I’m not too old.”
