The Rings of Power is moving into pre‑production for its fourth season, confirming that Amazon MGM Studios remains fully committed to the second‑age saga. This development comes ahead of the November 11 release of Season 3.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, pre‑production will start this fall with principal photography slated for early 2027. While the series has not received an official green light, Prime Video is described as “very bullish” about continuing the franchise.
Bray Studios Expansion
Amazon has filed plans to expand its recently acquired Bray Studios near Windsor, adding a large car park and six new production facilities. The upgrade could see Season 4 filmed entirely at the upgraded Amazon Studios at Shepperton, following the series’ move from New Zealand to the UK for Seasons 2 and 3. BBC News details the expansion proposal.
What Fans Can Expect
Early reports suggest Season 4 will focus on the fall of Númenor, a cataclysmic event that reshapes Middle‑earth’s geography and politics. The series has already attracted over 185 million viewers worldwide, making it one of Prime Video’s highest‑performing titles.
