THE LORD OF THE RINGS: THE WAR OF THE ROHIRRIM Begins Streaming Exclusively On Max February 28
New Line Cinema and Warner Bros. Animations' THE LORD OF THE RINGS: THE WAR OF THE ROHIRRIM will make its global streaming debut FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 28 exclusively on Max. The film will debut on HBO linear on SATURDAY, MARCH 1 at 8:00 p.m. ET.
Set 183 years before the events chronicled in the original trilogy of films, "The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim" tells the fate of the House of Helm Hammerhand, the legendary King of Rohan. A sudden attack by Wulf, a clever and ruthless Dunlending lord seeking vengeance for the death of his father, forces Helm and his people to make a daring last stand in the ancient stronghold of the Hornburg - a mighty fortress that will later come to be known as Helm's Deep. Finding herself in an increasingly desperate situation, Héra, the daughter of Helm, must summon the will to lead the resistance against a deadly enemy intent on their total destruction.
Under the direction of award-winning filmmaker Kenji Kamiyama (the "Blade Runner: Black Lotus" and "Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex" TV series), the talented voice cast is led by Brian Cox ("Succession") as Helm Hammerhand, the mighty King of Rohan; Gaia Wise ("A Walk in the Woods") as his daughter Héra; and Luke Pasqualino ("Snowpiercer") as Wulf. Miranda Otto, who delivered an unforgettable, award-winning performance in "The Lord of the Rings" Trilogy, reprises her role as Éowyn, Shieldmaiden of Rohan, who serves as the tale's narrator. The voice ensemble also includes Lorraine Ashbourne (Netflix's "Bridgerton"), Yazdan Qafouri ("I Came By"), Benjamin Wainwright ("World on Fire"), Laurence Ubong Williams ("Gateway"), Shaun Dooley ("The Witcher"), Michael Wildman ("Fast and Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw"), Jude Akuwudike ("Beasts of No Nation"), Bilal Hasna ("Sparks") and Janine Duvitski ("Benidorm").
With Kamiyama at the helm, the original feature is being produced by Oscar(R) winner Philippa Boyens, from the screenwriting team behind "The Lord of the Rings" and "The Hobbit" Trilogies, alongside Jason DeMarco and Joseph Chou, who, in addition to their many separate animation projects, collaborated on the "Blade Runner: Black Lotus" series. The executive producers are Fran Walsh, Peter Jackson, Sam Register, Ken Kamins, Carolyn Blackwood and Toby Emmerich. The screenplay is by Jeffrey Addiss & Will Matthews and Phoebe Gittins & Arty Papageorgiou, story by Addiss & Matthews and Boyens, based on characters created by J.R.R. Tolkien.
