Lord of the Rings fan site The One Ring (h/t /Film) is reporting via Twitter that the first season of the Amazon series will allegedly follow a young Aragorn – “young” character prequels are really all the rage these days.
It’s hard to imagine more Lord of the Rings without Jackson, but perhaps a fresh take could benefit an origin story.
The site claims they’ve gotten confirmation from “multiple” sources at Amazon, though the studio has yet to comment.
As it turns out, a new rumor suggests the series will partially be an origin story, and one devoted to the one true hunk of Middle Earth: Aragorn.
