'The Rings of Power': Amazon Studio Head Reveals How They Settled on 8 Episodes

How did LOTRonPrime settle on their 8-episode season? Amazon Studios' Head of Television explains.

It really was one TV series to rule them all this fall when Prime Video released their long-awaited The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power in early September. The series broke all previous Prime Video records for viewership. The series premiered to 25 million viewers around the globe, and by the finale was being watched by more than 100 million people, for a total of 24 billion minutes streamed.

COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY That was an evolving discussion. I think, originally, we were talking about making more episodes, but once we got into the practicalities of what it takes to shoot actors who are actually, in real life, at the same height, but you're creating dwarves and you're creating Harfoots, and elves and humans. Shockingly, as much as special effects have evolved over time, you still have to do it the old-fashioned way.

That's not to say that the choice didn't have an impact on the story. Making the decision early on no doubt enabled the team to craft their story to fit the episode count, rather than trying to retrofit after the fact, leaving obvious scissor marks behind. By also giving themselves ample time to film the Dwarves, Elves, Harfoots, and humans, the creators also were able to ensure as rounded a Middle-earth story as possible.
