It's all about The Lord of the Rings this week on Prime Video (Aug. 26–Sept. 1)

It’s the most highly anticipated release of 2024. The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power Season 2’s premiere is the release everyone has been talking about—whether good or bad. It’s almost time for the premiere on Prime Video!

This is the big release of the week, between Monday, Aug. 26 and Sunday, Sept. 1. That’s despite the release of the big drop on Sunday, Sept. 1. After all, there are sure to be tens of movies dropping on that date!

NOTE: Amazon has not released the listings for September 2024 at the time of writing this. We will update it as soon as the Sept. 1 listings are out. (List added on Tuesday, Aug. 27)

The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power Season 2 premieres this week

We’ll get the first three episodes of The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power Season 2 on Thursday, Aug. 29. This is sure to pick up off the back of the first season, which saw Sauron cast out. However, as we can see from the trailer for the second season, that’s not going to last for long.

You see, once Sauron gains someone’s trust, he is able to get inside their heads. That is sure to set up problems for Middle-earth. Now he is set on creating rings for the different creatures around Middle-earth, which is set to give him the control he needs.

Just like the first season, the rest of the season is set to follow with one episode each week. The finale will air on Thursday, Oct. 3.

If you’re not interested in The Lord of the Rings, there is a romantic drama to check out earlier in the week. The South Korean drama No Gain No Love will drop on Monday, Aug. 26. This series follows Son Hae-yeong who wants to avoid missing out on a promotion. To do that, she needs to get married, so she turns to her neighborhood convenience storm employee, Kim Ji Uk.
