The teaser for the upcoming season 3 of Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power was unveiled in San Diego Comic-Con on July 24. Actor Simon Pegg has joined the cast, voicing for Balrog as the third season brings new characters with Eddie Marsan as Thrain, Andrew Richardson as Anarion, and Adam Young as Marnûkh.
The teaser gives a glimpse into the darker tone of the show as Middle earth goes to war. Five years have passed since the fall of Eregion and the dark lord Sauron’s armies have marched across the world.

The new season promises to be a thrilling, action-packed follow up set five years after the events of last season.
The show stars Cynthia Addai-Robinson, Owain Arthur, Ismael Cruz Cordova, Charlie Vickers, Daniel Weyman in pivotal roles. It is produced by showrunners and executive producers J.D. Payne & Patrick McKay. They are joined by executive producers Lindsey Weber, Justin Doble, Kate Hazell, and executive producer-director Charlotte Brändström. Matthew Penry-Davey is producer and Ally O’Leary, Tim Keene, and Andrew Lee are co-producers.
