'The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power' Sets on Sauron for Season 2

In an interview with IGN, McKay and Payne shared that the next season will focus on Sauron. Fans can expect to see Sauron's strategy to conquer Middle-earth through various techniques from manipulation to deception.

"And the scary thing about Sauron is that while a lot of villains will exploit your weaknesses, Sauron sees your strengths and exploits those to try to get his evil ends done," Payne added.

In the second season, the fans will finally see Sauron approach Celebrimdor as Annatar in disguise. He will try to manipulate the elven smith to create more Rings of Power. Aside from the elf, Sauron will also use other forms to lure other people into his evil plans.
