Lord of the Rings followers are all very aware of Hobbits. And whereas the brand new prequel sequence The Rings of Power doesn’t have any Hobbits that we’ll acknowledge, it does introduce Harfoots, proto-Hobbit characters that actually appear like they’ll stand in for the Second Age equal of Frodo and Sam.

Since Rings of Power’s ensemble is slightly monumental, Prime Video has launched this video specializing in simply the Harfoots—in response to Dylan Smith, who performs Largo Brandyfoot, they’re “arguably the biggest secret of the show,” since J.R.R. Tolkien didn’t write an excessive amount of about them—to present viewers a way of who they’ll be assembly when the sequence arrives.

As you possibly can see, the Harfoots are very related to the “earth” a part of Middle-earth—able to reside and conceal within the woods so cleverly that many different inhabitants of the realm don’t even know they exist. This is clearly a distinction to the village within the Shire we see within the Peter Jackson film (no lovely little hillside homes right here), and it units up the journey for the Rings of Power characters once they’re drawn out of their forest habitat and into the widespread turmoil we’ll see on the present. Also, as you possibly can see from the picture up high, the bushy ft have been current even within the earliest Hobbits.

The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power arrives September 2 on Prime Video.
