The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power
Summary
Sauron ’s camouflage inThe Lord of The Rings : The Rings of Powerseason 2 seems unable at first glance , but it ’s ability to deceive Elves is not as farfetched as it seems . The Rings of Powerseason 2 lagger shows a eccentric that can only be a new iteration of Sauron , sharing the same player as the Halbrand character of season 1 . Since Halbrand was outed by Galadriel as Sauron inThe Rings of Powerseason 1 closing , time of year 2 ’s Sauron will front the challenge of using a similar face to infiltrate Eregion again and trick its resident into making the series ’ titular closed chain .
This much is evident from Tolkien ’s story , includingThe takings of The KingAppendix B , whichThe Rings of Powerhas the rights to conform . In this appendix , “ Sauron endeavour to seduce the Eldar ” and “ the Smith of Eregion are won over ” , who “ instructed by Sauron ” , “ begin the forging of the Rings of Power ” . Part of Amazon ’s bargain is that they ca n’t roam too far from Tolkien ’s canon , according to show advisor Tom Shippey , talking toThe Guardian . However , if Sauron keep up this plan , it begs the dubiousness of how he will succeed with the same face as Halbrand .
Amazon ’s The Lord of the Rings : The Rings of Power has bed characters and brand novel single , all with familiar faces . Here ’s where you make out them from .
Not All Elves Know What Sauron Looks Like AfterThe Rings Of PowerSeason 1
Sauron May Not Have to Deceive That Many Elves After All
The Rings of Powerseason 2 trailerindicates various narrative maneuver the show could take to ensure keeping the much - have it off Charlie Vickers in his Sauron function work out . Though he seems to be wearing insidious prosthetics to falsify his appearance slightly , the most obvious interrogative is still how this only somewhat altered fount will pull the wool over Galadriel and Celebrimbor ’s eye , plus those of other David Roland Smith or healers he got to have it off . This form may not have to . Fellowship of Fansasserted on X that the show may be able to access rights to certaintexts fromUnfinished Tales , providing an answer to the enigma .
Although the text mentioned do n’t include the role relevant to this part of the story , this would mean that the doorway is open for the show to explore rights to other parts ofUnfinished Tales . Thus far , they have only had right to adaptThe Lord of The Rings , The HobbitandThe Appendices . The secret plan thickens in one key part ofUnfinished Tales : “ Sauron used all his fine art upon Celebrimbor and his fellow - Smith … but he ferment in cloak-and-dagger , unsung to Galadriel ” .
If Sauron worked in enigma , it ’s quite potential his Elf form is barely a disguise at all , andsimply a new look designed to shrug off the most basic of research as to his identity . After all , Halbrand really only knew a small-scale handful of Elves in Eregion . Plus , viewers get it on fromThe Silmarillionthat while “ A masquerade party he could still wear so that if he wished he might betray the centre of Men ” , “ he ruled rather by force and fear , if they might avail ” . Sauron would n’t waffle to silence anyone who threatened his cover , either by murder or manipulation .

The Light Celebrimbor Sees Could Be Sauron’s REAL Disguise In The Rings Of Power Season 2
There’s Reason To Believe The Light Celebrimbor Sees Comes From Sauron
A bright luminousness feeler Celebrimbor in the season 2 trailer , which could be Sauron . Season 2 Sauron compare to Tolkien ’s Annatarcharacter to a sure extent - this is just Sauron in Eregion , exactly as describe inAppendix Babove , but named and fleshed out in other text edition . Sauron infiltrated Eregion , using the name Annatarand sell himself as an “ emissary of the Valar ” . The Valar are the Gods of Tolkien ’s world , and the same race as Sauron . Here , Sauron could be refer to coming from Aman , where the Valar live , as a messenger , or openly admitting his race .
Since Ainur take whatever form suits them , this made sense for Sauron - he want to impress and restrain . The texts do n’t describeSauron changing shapebetween this point and his hitch in Númenor , so these descriptions of his appearance from his sentence in Númenor back this up : he was “ with child than any … of the race of Númenor in stature ” and people “ feared the light of his eyes” . Fair and intimidating , the luminosity facing Celebrimbor in the time of year 2 trailer is possibly coming from Sauron , number to cozen and awe . This perhaps show that Sauron use his Ainur form more than his Elf form .
Sauron May Actually Change His Face During The Rings Of Power Season 2
Sauron’s Fair Form May Not Be What It Seems
The Rings of Powercould be using every trick in the book to delude audience about Sauron , paralleling the experience characters go through . Season 1 was illusion , but if the soundtrack and atmosphere of the time of year 2 drone is anything to go by , season 2 will also take inspiration from horror and psychological thrillers . A music director said toMovieZinethat season 2 is “ darker ” and that they“tried to make it more spunky … And not in the figure , but to make it as authentic as possible . We have some very surprising twist and turn in it”(translation viaThe Yard ) .
It may be that the audience sees Sauron ’s camouflage , but his true descriptor is different . This would turn on the soft - retcon of Sauron ’s Elf physique having been his true form all along . This appall braid would explain the threat in Galadriel ’s voice in the trailer as she emotes “ I think he has been here among us all along ” . If Sauron can enrol Galadriel ’s mind to produce the legerdemain of the season 1 coda , this is n’t a reaching . Conversely , peradventure the audience sees Sauron ’s unfeigned form , whereas character see something else entirely- perhaps his shin , divine form - recalling Neo inThe Matrix Resurrections .
If Sauron ’s genius is warping others ’ perceptual experience of his show , his Halbrand artifice could be a dizzying mixed bag of a human class and his Elf form , his rightful form , or all in the mind . All bet are off with god - like beings like the Ainur . Sauron ’s illusion in the season 1 finale could be the first of many . Galadriel can “ perceive … his creative thinker ” and engages in psychic war with him by the time ofThe society of The Ring . Perhaps , afterwards , it will be Galadriel figure Sauron ’s judgment , enabling flashback to his dreary past inThe Rings of Power .
