The upcoming third season of The Rings of Power has announced the addition of actors Jamie Campbell Bower and Eddie Marsan to its cast. Both actors are known for their roles in popular Netflix series, with Bower recognized for his performance as Vecna in Stranger Things and Marsan for his work in Heartstopper.
This casting news follows the official announcement of the third season, which is currently in pre-production. Filming is set to begin this spring, with Bower confirmed as a series regular and Marsan in a recurring role.
Character Speculations
While Amazon has not disclosed the specific roles for Bower and Marsan, speculation suggests that Marsan could portray a dwarven character, possibly Durin IV’s brother. This character is expected to play a significant role in the power dynamics of Khazad-dûm following the events of season 2.
Bower’s role remains uncertain. Given his history of playing antagonistic characters, some speculate he may take on a villainous role, potentially as a disguise of Sauron. However, there are also suggestions that he might embody a more heroic character, such as an elf from Tolkien’s lore.
The addition of Bower and Marsan marks a significant upgrade to the cast of The Rings of Power, which has already set the stage for intriguing storylines based on J.R.R. Tolkien’s extensive mythos.
