EXCLUSIVE: Cynthia Addai-Robinson Discusses Tar-Miriel's Character Arc In The Lord Of The Rings: The Rings Of Power S2; 'In For Some Surprises'

As a die-hard fan who has spent countless hours immersed in Middle-Earth, I eagerly await the return of Amazon Prime’s The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power. Having grown up with the original trilogy and The Hobbit, I can hardly contain my excitement as we delve deeper into this captivating universe.


anticipation builds as Amazon Prime’s critically acclaimed series “Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power” approaches its second season; this show delves into Middle-earth’s second era – the creation of the Rings of Power. Following a successful initial run, boasting an impressive 84% rating on Rotten Tomatoes, fans eagerly await to see what unfolds in the upcoming season. But, what lies ahead for viewers in season 2?

During a private chat with TopMob, actress Cynthia Addai-Robinson, portraying Queen Tar-Míriel – daughter and heir to King Tar-Palantir of Númenor – shared insights into her character’s journey in the approaching season.

“Addai-Robinson explained that the character, Tar-Míriel, begins under the shadow of loss following the devastating first season events. She lost a significant battle and her father, the king, in the process. This loss has led to doubts about her leadership among the Númenorians.”

“The Texas Rising actress stated that she had lost her father, who was their king, as well as her vision and a significant battle, which cost many of her Númenorian companions. As a result, when she comes back to her kingdom, the people are displeased with her.”

Despite her position as rightful leader being questionable due to doubt from some quarters, Tar-Míriel needs to seize the moment and skillfully handle the challenges arising. Addai-Robinson hopes that viewers will support her journey, as she is undoubtedly going to face trials and, hopefully, ultimately emerge victorious.

She also teased that the season will delve deeper into the characters only “introduced” in the first one. Fans will go on a journey with these characters and be invested in their fates. “They are in for some surprises,” she teased. 

The grand saga unfolds millennia prior to J.R.R. Tolkien’s tales in The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, delving into the backstory of the enigmatic power rings and the tragic collapse of the mighty Númenor empire.

The Lord Of The Rings: The Rings Of Power season 2 will be released on August 29.
