www.hollywoodreporter.com
The 'Lord of the Rings' series showrunners are interviewed about the finale's big Sauron reveal, and what it means for next season: "There may be viewers who are like, ‘This is the story we were hoping to get in season one!’ In season two, we’re giving it to them."

In some ways, we wanted to do an origin story for Sauron.

:palme-confusion:

“I hope after the last episode airs, viewers watch the whole season again

:warf-wtf:

“Season one opens with: Who is Galadriel? Where did she come from? What did she suffer? Why is she driven?” says Payne. “We’re doing the same thing with Sauron in season two. We’ll fill in all the missing pieces.”

:concerned-confusion:

“Sauron can now just be Sauron,” McKay adds. “Like Tony Soprano or Walter White. He’s evil, but complexly evil.

:wat:

Season two has a canonical story

:huey-wut:
