Learn about the incredible life of Aragorn, son of Arathorn, who will (hopefully!) be featured in the billion-dollar budgeted show on Amazon. Tolkien experts will discuss the storylines the show-runners will likely explore in the five seasons they have under contract with the Tolkien estate. The panelists will review Aragorn’s lineage and the great deeds of his life as he became the most accomplished hero of the Third Age. Did you know he served in Gondor and Rohan? He also hunted and found Gollum. Aragorn fought the corsairs of Umbar and went far into the East to uncover the plots of Sauron. He defended the North as the leader of the Dúnedain rangers. Why did Arwen give up her immortality for him? As Strider, he helped get the One Ring to Rivendell and led the Fellowship through the darkness and beyond. But what would have happened if Aragorn had taken the One Ring? What if he died along the journey instead of others who fell? Viggo Mortensen’s portrayal was inspired, but who can they get to play him as a young man? Join us, as we talk about our brother . . . Our captain . . . Our king.
