Anya Taylor-Joy is officially journeying to Middle Earth. “The Queen’s Gambit” actress has been cast as an elf named Seren in The Lord of the Rings prequel, “The Hunt for Gollum”, directed by Andy Serkis, Gollum himself, for a December 2027 release.  

Warner Bros. has unveiled the first official cast for The Lord of the Rings: The Hunt for Gollum, with a mix of returning franchise players and new additions set to expand Middle-earth’s cinematic legacy. As the title suggests, the film will center around Gollum – with Andy Serkis reprising his role while also directing the project. 

Sauron has returned. Cast out by Galadriel, without army or ally, the rising Dark Lord must now rely on his own cunning to rebuild his strength and oversee the creation of the Rings of Power, which will allow him to bind all the peoples of Middle-earth to his sinister will. Building on Season 1’s epic scope and ambition, Season 2 of Amazon’s The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power plunges even its most beloved and vulnerable characters into a rising tide of darkness, challenging each to find their place in a world that is increasingly on the brink of calamity. Elves and dwarves, orcs and men, wizards and Harfoots… as friendships are strained and kingdoms begin to fracture, the forces of good will struggle ever more valiantly to hold on to what matters to them most of all… each other.
