This is Celebrimbor, a legendary Elven smith of the Second Age, as depicted by WETA Workshop for the game “Shadow of Mordor”. Ruler of the region of Eregion (near the Mines of Moria and Khazad Dum), Celebrimbor and his smiths were visited by the mysterious and fair Annatar, who promised to teach them how to make rings of great power... The creation of these rings, and the dramatic events that they set into motion, are likely to play a key role in this new Lord of the Rings on Prime TV series, set during the Second Age of Middle Earth. Who among the cast do you think might play Celebrimbor? (Joseph Mawle, perhaps?)

It’s time for our first LOTROnPrime Cast Spotlight: Robert Aramayo! “I wish you good fortune in the wars to come. And now it begins.” “No...now it ends.”

For our first LOTROnPrime cast spotlight, we take a look at the career of Robert Aramayo! The 27-year-old British actor is best known for playing Young Ned Stark in “Game of Thrones”, but has made an impact in a number of other roles since bursting onto the scene in 2016. From the heroic Ned Stark in GOT, to murderer Elmer Wayne Henley in “Mindhunter” and motorcycle co-founder Bill Harley in "Harley and the Davidsons”, plus an upcoming appearance in “The King’s Man”, Aramayo has established himself as a young actor to watch with his star casting in The Lord of the Rings on Prime, reportedly as Elrond. No matter his eventual confirmed role, it should be a joy to get to know an actor with such a range and pedigree as he makes his mark in this high-budget journey to the second age of Middle Earth.

The world is changed. (I amar prestar sen.) 

I feel it in the water (han mathon ne nen)...

I feel it in the earth (han mathon ne chae)... 

I smell it in the air (a han noston ned wilith)... 

Much that once was, is lost. For none now live who remember it.
