The film studio Warner Bros. Discovery has secured the film rights to “Lord of the Rings”. As a result, the New York City-based company and its sub-label New Line Cinema (responsible for the Lord of the Rings and Hobbit trilogies) have entered into a multi-year deal with Embracer Group AB. The latter is a Swedish media group and owns the film rights to JRR Tolkien’s most famous works. The cast and storylines have not yet been announced.

Maybe we’ll have a chance to travel back to the Tolkien universe soon.

Warner Bros. Discovery CEO David Zaslav said in a conference call with Variety that he announced that newly appointed studio heads Mike De Luca and Pam Abdy had negotiated a deal to release “several” films on the Based on the popular books by JRR Tolkien.

Tolkien universe can be further explored

Warner Bros. Discovery’s new heads, Mike De Luca and Pam Abdy, said the move will allow the production company to explore new aspects of the Tolkien universe, according to Variety. In their statement, De Luca and Abdy said, “For all the scope and detail lovingly packed into the two trilogies, the vast, complex, and dazzling universe that JRR Tolkien envisioned remains largely unexplored.” And it should apparently change.

The most recent Lord of the Rings spinoff is The Rings of Power, the Prime Video series set thousands of years before the events of Tolkien’s books.
