'Lord of the Rings' teaser trailer brings us back to Middle Earth


Are you ready for a journey back to Middle Earth?

Amazon Prime just unveiled the teaser trailer for its upcoming "Lord of the Rings" series, and it looks just as magical as the film trilogies that preceded it.

The teaser brings us back to the world created by J.R.R. Tolkien, but this time it's set thousands of years back — "before the King, before the Fellowship, before the Ring."

It introduces the ancestors of the Hobbits and teases new creatures. Based on the trailer's description, the show will revolve around the "heroic legends of the fabled Second Age of Middle Earth's history."

"From the darkest depths of the Misty Mountains, to the majestic forests of the elf-capital of Lindon, to the breathtaking island kingdom of Númenor, to the furthest reaches of the map, these kingdoms and characters will carve out legacies that live on long after they are gone," the synopsis read.

"The Lord of the Rings," based on Tolkien's epic fantasy novel, was adapted into a live-action film trilogy starting 2001.

In 2012, the franchise launched "The Hobbit" film trilogy.
