To my surprise, I am actually looking forward to that.

Apparently, Bronwyn will not be a returning character in Season 2, even though her son Theo and her Elf lover Arondir will be.

‘The Rings Of Power’ Actress Nazanin Boniadi Not Returning For Season 2
Lord of the Rings: Rings of Power actress Nazanin Boniadi won’t be returning as her human healer character Bronwyn for season 2 of the Prime Video series.

Deadline has also confirmed that Boniadi’s role has not been recast. Bronwyn is the mother of Theo (Tyroe Muhafidin) and the lover of elf warrior Arondir (Ismael Cruz Cordova). Both Muhafidin and Cordova are returning for season 2. Bronwyn didn’t make an appearance in the recent teaser trailer for season 2 of Rings of Power.
There is a scene in the trailer in which Theo appears to be weeping. I would guess that his mother is killed off.

I guess if we are going to have Tom Bombadil, we might as well have Barrowwights (even though I always thought, perhaps wrongly, that the Wights were put in the Barrow by the Witchking in the Third Age

I will be interested in Rings of Power. I think my take on this, is there is the written word, what Tolkien wrote and for me that is the key. I love reading and forming interpretations from the writing. Both Peter Jackson's adaptations and Rings of Power Adaptations are that, visual adaptations of Tolkien. I think the difference between the books and the visual adaptations reflect an ever increase in our society to move to visual stimulation instead of reading, analyzing and creating meaning. That saddens me as I see that in education as I begin to come near the end of my career (5-6 years left).
Now, having said that, and making it clear I much more prefer reading Tolkien's books and material and making meaning from it, I do enjoy the visuals and have decided to just go along with the ride. I ever hope it makes some get into Tolkien's writings and the visual representations serve as an invitation to learn more.
The world is indeed full of peril, and in it, there are many dark places; but still, there is much that is fair, and though in all lands, love is now mingled with grief, it grows perhaps the greater.

I would have expected a longer beard, but otherwise, I like the look.

Was just about to post it. It's very impressive!
