"Before the king, before the fellowship, before the ring, a new legend begins this fall," the one-minute trailer reads. On July 22, a brand-new trailer was unveiled during San Diego's Comic-Con, which appears to give fans a first look at Balrog, the infamous villain from the J.R.R. Tolkien novels. The upcoming series is set during the Second Age - when the rings of power came into existence - and takes place "thousands of years before the events of J.R.R. Tolkien's 'The Hobbit' and 'The Lord of the Rings,'" per Prime Video's synopsis. The new show will transport viewers to an era where both old and familiar faces will confront the feared re-emergence of evil to Middle-earth.
