What is The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim about?
“Set 183 years before the events chronicled in the original trilogy of films, The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim tells the fate of the House of Helm Hammerhand, the legendary King of Rohan,” the synopsis reads. “A sudden attack by Wulf, a clever and ruthless Dunlending lord seeking vengeance for the death of his father, forces Helm and his people to make a daring last stand in the ancient stronghold of the Hornburg— a mighty fortress that will later come to be known as Helm’s Deep. Finding herself in an increasingly desperate situation, Héra, the daughter of Helm, must summon the will to lead the resistance against a deadly enemy intent on their total destruction.”
The film’s voice cast includes Brian Cox as Helm Hammerhand, Gaia Wise as Héra, Luke Pasqualino as Wulf, Miranda Otto as Éowyn (Otto reprises her role from Peter Jackson’s trilogy), and Shaun Dooley as Freca. Lorraine Ashbourne, Yazdan Qafouri, Benjamin Wainwright, Michael Wildman, Jude Akuwudike, Bilal Hasna, and Janine Duvitski round out the cast.
The screenplay was written by Phoebe Gittins and Arty Papageorgiou, based on a story by Jeffrey Addiss and Will Matthews. Kamiyama previously worked on a number of Ghost in the Shell projects and also directed episodes of Blade Runner: Black Lotus and Ultraman.
The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim will be released in United States theaters on December 13, 2024, from Warner Bros. Pictures.
