The Lord of the Rings: TheRingsOfPower creators J.D. Payne and Patrick McKay reveal they hid Sauron teases absurdly early in the Prime Video show.
While audiences continue to reel from the finale reveal, creators J.D. Payne and Patrick McKay reveal that The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power’s Sauron identity was teased absurdly early in the show. Prime Video’s fantasy television series is a prequel to J.R.R. Tolkien's The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, set thousands of years before the two trilogies unfold.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY After plenty of discussion about the Dark Lord, The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power season 1 finale found Charlie Vickers, who initially played Halbrand, also revealed to be Sauron in disguise. Given Halbrand and Galadriel spent much of the show's run bonding with one another after the latter opted out of going to Valinor and became a castaway on his destroyed ship.

She asks on the raft, “What kind of man would leave his companions to die?” He says, “The kind of man that knows how to survive.
Repeating LOTR Dialogue Is A Key Strategy For Rings Of Power With powerful writing that well-maintained Sauron's secrecy in various stages of production, The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power has awed both its audiences and cast alike.
By managing to connect the dots, The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power has shown that any franchise’s success rests upon the perception it leaves on the masses, and with audiences' now twisted to know not everything is as it seems, it will be interesting to see how Payne and McKay look to keep audiences in the dark heading into season 2.
