Potential spoilers follow forThe Rings of Powerseason 2.
Incidentally, thatbig Sauron reveal was almost spoiled in the show’s second episode.
The Rings of Power season 2’s official teaser trailer is packed with secrets.
I don’t believe Durin IV is talking about Sauron.
The giant, molten rocks that rain on a bridge in Khazad-dum (perhapsthebridge?)
imply it’ll attack the famous dwarven stronghold this season, too.
I don’t think Durin IV is talking about Sauron here, folks.
So, how will he trick or terrify his enemies?
This slithering mess of vipers, then, might be a reference to that part of Sauron’s history.
If it isn’t, what else could it be?
What on earth is this slithering, snake-like mess of a humanoid?
to an unknown destination.
Look closely, and it’s possible for you to make out some shadowy figures lurking in the background.
I’ll be amazed if they’re not.
Galadriel and her elven kin will have to have their wits about them this season.
Is this the orc army led by Adar?
Where are they heading to?
And has Sauron persuaded them to join his cause?
“We’re on the march with Adar’s army…"
As I’ll explain later, though, there’s a method to that apparent madness.
But what if it’s a nightmare that Celebrimbor is having instead?
Annatar approaches
And here’s the eponymous villain himself, albeit in his most famous disguise: Annatar.
I sssseeeee yoooooou.
The first teaser shows a female character coming face-to-face with said leviathan in an underwater setting.
Could it be a completely new monstrosity created for the series?
It seems that way.
Say hello to Sau- I mean, err, Annatar, the Lord of Gifts.
So, who’s wearing the rings?
Its arrival comes at a great cost, too.
That isn’t the case.
This isn’t the Watcher in the Water, from what I can tell.
As the first teaser reveals, Isildur is alive and well.
But I’m getting ahead of myself…
11.
The idea isn’t so farfetched, though.
Three rings for the Elven-kings under the sky…
At the 1:15 mark, a barrage of flaming boulders are seen being hurled at Eregion.
For the uninitiated, this is the start of the Siege of Eregion.
Expect this conflict to be season 2’s main action set-piece.
…and seven for the Dwarf Lords in their halls of stone.
We also see him and/or Nori hanging onto a building for dear life amid a raging sandstorm.
We’ll find out soon.
Cast them into the fire!
Are we getting an Arondir-Isildur team up?!
Unfortunately, we know the magical bands can’t be destroyed so easily.
I do wonder, though, who is trying to melt them down so they can’t be used.
If it isn’t him, I’m not sure who it could be.
I bet you didn’t expect to see a Great Eagle in season 2, did you?
We see a large, lush area of Middle-earth instantaneously landscaped into something far more… sinister and foreboding.
Hey, who else would do something like this with a mere flick of his wrist?
The giant tower situated at its center, which is one of Middle-earth’s infamous Two Towers.
The War of the Elves and Sauron will begin in season 2.

This Adar is not like his season 1 counterpart.
Well, that’s one way to get water to flow…
Is this a battered Celebrimbor attempting to destroy some of the titular rings?
This appears to be the creation of Barad-dûr, rather than Isengard.
