It seems timely to share this crib sheet about Celeborn, which I put together in 2024 just before Rings of Power season 2 It's going to be very interesting to see how trop will introduce him, since they've kept well away from most of Tolkien's versions of his life!
I've been in some chat with folk who only know Celeborn from the movies (where he's practically a non-entity). So I've written a primer for anyone who needs some background. I'm afraid it will raise as many questions as it answers 🤷🏽‍♀️

Season 3 features an ethereal new song from Bear McCreary and AURORA - “Morning Shall Come.” Get an early look and listen now, and stand ready for the full single releasing tomorrow.

Because according to Unfinished Tales, once they were embodied, the Istari did not retain their memory of Valinor, so Gandalf does not remember being Olorin. The show is actually aligning with Tolkien and isn’t diminishing Gandalf, but accurately representing Tolkien’s depiction

This is insightful (and genuinely moving) Non-Haladriels don't be afraid to watch. It's a good thing cunningly made

Barahir and his men were hunted like wild beasts; and they retreated to the barren highland above the forest, and wandered among the tarns and rocky moors of that region, furthest from the spies and spells of Morgoth. Their bed was the heather and their roof the cloudy sky.

Going unerringly to the very heart of Tolkien
Hobbit films might not be right up there with LotR trilogy, but when Peter Jackson cooks, he cooks.

Charlie Vickers' wonky head 🤣 Still - having someone bring out a blowtorch to fix a prop that's *on your head* ? That's literally metal ! (They took it off his head first)

Earlier today, we detected evidence of a security incident on #AO3. We are still in the early stages of investigating. No AO3 data has been deleted. All your works, bookmarks, kudos, etc., are safe. Learn more at otwstatus.org/incidents/g12j…
We estimate that service restoration for #AO3 will take around 2 weeks but it could be up to 4 weeks. We are hopeful that we will be able to bring the site back up in a degraded state sooner. Refer to our status page for updates: otwstatus.org/
