"Prime Video revealed the official date for the return of The Rings of Power. The series will premiere on November 11, 2026, meaning there are only six months standing between us and our next trip to Middle-earth."
"The Rings of Power Season 3 notably takes place after a major time-jump, and that can actually be felt in this image of the Dark Lord. Though Sauron dwells in shadow, his “fairer form” looks a bit more weathered than it did when we saw him last. He looks a lot more like Halbrand, the disguise he first takes on in The Rings of Power Season 1, than Annatar, whom he embodied in Season 2."
"Season 3 is getting ever-closer to the final battle between his dark army and the army of Elves and Men that will assemble to defeat him. The Rings of Power isn't connected to Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings films - but it's hard to shake the image of the battle-ready Sauron we get in The Fellowship of the Ring. The Rings of Power may be building to something similar; Season 3 is likely giving us the next phase leading up to it."
Prime Video set the official premiere date for The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power Season 3 as November 11, 2026. The season follows a major time-jump from the events of Season 2, which is reflected in the first image of Charlie Vickers’ Sauron. His “fairer form” appears more weathered than before, resembling Halbrand more than Annatar. The season is positioned closer to the conflict between Sauron’s dark army and the combined forces of Elves and Men. The series is not connected to Peter Jackson’s films, but the battle-ready tone evokes imagery from The Fellowship of the Ring, suggesting a progression toward a larger climactic phase.
