A scene depicting Elves and Orcs combating is nothing new for a Center-earth adaptation, however this explicit BTS picture comes with the caption, “First behind-the-scenes have a look at the Battle of Eregion for ‘The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Energy’ Season 2.” Final August, Fellowship of Followers reported that “Rings of Energy” Season 2 options surprising characters sharing the battlefield over a two-episode battle.
