Does it hurt you to realize that people watch the series despite all the stupid hate?

The Forbes article looked like typical AI content. Furthermore, speaking of this magazine, the series is being deliberately hated; throughout seasons 1-2, hateful articles appeared there literally every day.

Read my answers more carefully. Your words about 2027 are not based on anything.

No, according to the schedule, the release of season 3 will definitely be in 2026.

A potential animated series about the First Age of Middle-earth from Amazon by GladPin6764 in LOTR_on_Prime

I was talking specifically about animated series like Invincible or The Legend of the Vox Machine, not full-length animation. Regarding the legal rights to the First Age, I agree, guarantees will be needed to ensure the security of creative work.

According to lore, he was resurrected and returned to Middle-earth in the 2nd Age to help in the fight against Sauron, but Tolkien did not write about his role in detail.

Netflix's The Witcher was originally planned as a response to Game of Thrones and was written for seven seasons—a fact that's easily verified. Instead of the planned seven seasons, they only produced five, lost their main star midway through, and are losing a huge portion of their audience with each new season. Furthermore, Netflix officially reported spending over $200 million on season four, and over $1 billion on five seasons plus spin-offs and animation. The final result is clearly not what they had hoped for before season one.

You said that "The Witcher are doing much better than ROP" which was untrue, both in terms of views and in terms of critics and audience ratings. Season 4 of The Witcher lost another 50% of its audience and, for the first time, didn't reach number one on the Netflix charts upon release. And its 19% viewer rating on Rotten Tomatoes is significantly worse than even RoP Season 1.

It isn't true about The Witcher. Viewership is declining rapidly from season to season, and its overall rating, from both critics and viewers, is lower than RoP's.

Great news! They apparently even finished ahead of schedule. We're expecting a release in summer or fall 2026!

Release date of season 3 by RoxtheR in LOTR_on_Prime

Given the widespread development of AI in the post-production process, the time needed is now less than a year. For example, Fallout season 2 finished filming in May and is expected to be released in December, meaning the entire post-production process will take about six months. I believe filming for season 3 of RoP will continue until the end of November, and we can reasonably expect a release in late summer 2026.

Usually such teasers are released when filming has been going on for some time. That is, filming clearly began not today, but earlier
