As a seasoned gamer and long-time Lord of the Rings fanatic, I can wholeheartedly affirm Leon Wadham’s sentiments about the dangers of men getting their hands on those cursed rings. Having rewatched the movies countless times and even role-playing as various characters in tabletop games, I’ve seen firsthand the corruption that comes with that blasted jewelry.
In essence, if there’s one takeaway from the TV series Rings of Power and the Lord of the Rings films, it’s clear that no one should possess those rings. Yet, they are being crafted in the prequel series set for release in 2024, and as the movies illustrate, the power they hold inevitably leads to corruption. Thus, when actor Leon Wadham, who portrays Kemen in the show, spoke about why men should never handle the jewelry, I found myself reflecting on my recent rewatch of the films, and I wholeheartedly agree with his sentiment.
Leon Wadham Explains Why Kemen And Men Shouldn’t Get The Rings
During my conversation with the cast from The Rings of Power, I inquired about which LOTR character they would emulate if they were given a ring themselves. Interestingly, most of them responded that they’d resemble Gollum, and no one expressed confidence in being able to cast the ring into Mount Doom. In essence, it seems nearly unavoidable for even the purest individuals to succumb to the influence of the ring.
While ScreenRant inquired about Leon Wadham’s character Kemen, son of Númenor’s king Pharazôn, from him, he shared his take on how Kemen would respond if he were to be with one of the nine. In a quick response, he articulated why such a scenario wouldn’t work well for his character.
It seems things are going poorly and adding Kemen into the mix might make things worse, potentially leading to a catastrophe. As Celeimbor pointed out earlier this season, giving rings to men was a terrible idea according to Sauron. And considering our current state, it’s clear what he meant by that. If we’re already in such a precarious position without them, imagine where we’ll end up when they join us?
He’s right, Kemen’s actions have been abysmal, and he’s not even under the influence of the ring.

In Episode 5, it was evident that Kemen and his father were power-hungry and malicious before. However, when Wadham’s character murdered Valandil, it became undeniable that Kemen had turned into a villain. To add to the wickedness, when I questioned the actor about how this event would affect Kemen, he responded that if he escapes punishment for his actions, he’ll interpret it as a reward.
Well, I’d say it like this: “You know what, mate? I wouldn’t even think about giving him a ring. And as we saw in those Lord of the Rings movies, they were wise not to. No one in Númenor should have one.
The Films, Specifically Fellowship Of The Ring, Prove That Point Clearly Through An Important Rings Of Power Connection
Indeed, it’s clear that the films based on “The Lord of the Rings” illustrate how even noble characters like Frodo can be influenced negatively by the ring. Moreover, the initial movie subtly imparts a brief history of Númenor and Gondor, which supports Wadham’s theory about men and these cursed rings.
For the first time since seeing “The Rings of Power,” I recently revisited “Fellowship of the Ring.” This viewing, however, offered a new depth as I delved into Aragorn’s ancestry and his connection to Isildur, which made a significant impact this time around.
I’ve come to love Isildur on Rings of Power, and he’s such a pure and heroic figure. However, Fellowship shows us that when he comes into possession of the One Ring, he can’t throw it into Mount Doom. That disastrous choice is what makes it so Sauron can live on for so long. It also shows that even the strongest of men can’t do good with the rings, no matter how hard they try – and that’s true for dwarves and elves too.
In summary, Wadham’s remarks align with the portrayal in the Lord of the Rings films and the observations made by Celebrimbor regarding the perilous nature of power, particularly for individuals like Kemen and Pharazôn.
