During the conversation in the chat, when queried about the audience’s response to the initial season, both actors spoke highly of the affection and encouragement they received from viewers. Additionally, Ismael Cruz Cordova expressed that he prefers maintaining a private bond with his character.

“Ismael Cruz Cordova expressed that he has a deep understanding of himself and others, stating, ‘I am who I am, and they understand me, as I understand them. And let me be clear, I don’t believe I took anything from the situation.'”

In contrast to others’ perceptions, Tyroe found his character, Theo, puzzling. Despite many expressing their affection for the character, he admitted to feeling bewildered by this response. “I find it surprising and almost overwhelming with all the support and people professing their love for Theo,” Tyroe explained.

He went on to say that he doesn’t consider Theo to be a kind-hearted child. He elaborated, “I don’t find him to be especially good-natured,” and further clarified, “He’s not the friendliest character. I wouldn’t choose to be friends with him myself.” Then, gesturing towards Ismael, he added, “You always seem to support Theo, though.”

In the spirit of familiarizing themselves with their characters, the cast of The Lord of the Rings: Rings of Power participated in a brief trivia game. Catch them in action when The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power returns for season 2 on Thursday, August 29, 2024.
