Sauron is a supervillain of The Lord of the Rings saga. However, star Charlie Vickers, who played the villainous character, says he wants fans to support him because they will see him in a different light after the second season.
During an interview with virginradio.co.ukThe Australian star spoke about his role in the series' world premiere, saying: “I'm looking forward to fans being able to follow the journey of the villain of the show, but I hope they don't think he's a big villain,” adding: “I mean, he clearly is, but I hope people will root for him.”
Pressed to reveal more about the new season, Charlie said: “A season full of hope and there's romance, none of that in my part of the story. My part of the story is very dark and psychological.”
“It’s like a psychological drama, and it balances that side of the show really well with big battles,” he continued, adding: “In episodes seven and eight, there’s a big battle, but also some really intimate scenes that have a lot of intense psychology behind them.”
The rings of power Episodes are currently streaming weekly on Amazon Prime.
