'The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power' has finally folded Númenor into its story. In doing so, the Amazon series has also introduced two legendary ...

Right now, Elendil seems happy to continue flying under the radar of Númenor’s leadership, but that won’t last forever. Their lives in Númenor were only briefly outlined by Tolkien, which means The Rings of Power has been tasked with finding new ways for the two characters to grow into the heroic figures they’re destined to become. Isildur was also born in Númenor and, like his father, grew to become a prominent member of the Faithful. Based on where we meet Isildur and Elendil, it looks like viewers will see some of Isildur’s more heroic acts. Galadriel (Morfydd Clark) and Halbrand (Charlie Vickers) are escorted to the [iconic Second Age location](https://www.inverse.com/entertainment/rings-of-power-second-age-timeline) early in Episode 3 by Elendil (Lloyd Owen), a character who will be very familiar to all the devoted Tolkien readers out there. When we meet him, he seems to be little more than just one of the city’s many naval captains.

The Rings of Power: What Elendil Means for the Future of Lord of the ... (Den of Geek)

Exclusive: The Rings of Power introduces Elendil, one of the elusive figures in the history of Middle-earth. Actor Lloyd Owen reveals the character's ...

“There is the personal, the effect of grief on a family, and the political and the way those two worlds collide. However, even in introducing new characters, the writers have been careful to stay close to the spirit of Tolkien’s writing. and Patrick had the scope to introduce new characters and they have introduced new characters, but they’re all Tolkienian,” Owen insists. It includes the effects of growing up in Númenor, the schism in that society, how that affects Isildur, how it affects Elendil, how it affects [Elendil’s daughter] Earien. “To that extent I started thinking about that question, just what informed how he would be if that had been the scenario? “I’ve also posited the question that if Tolkien did write him, if [Elendil] had the ring, would he throw the ring into the fire?” Owen says. The relationship between Elendil and Isildur will prove to be a key strand of the Amazon Prime series, but Owen cautions against viewing it as a simple origin story. He has a go at fighting Sauron, dies immediately, and his sword is smashed into bits and remains that way until Aragorn puts them all back together again in [Return of the King](https://www.denofgeek.com/movies/lord-of-the-rings-return-of-the-king-needed-all-endings/). He would throw it into the fire!’ and that just revealed how close he is to people’s hearts.” “The privilege and real joy is to open him up in three dimensions. At this stage of his life, as you see him in episode three, I don’t think you could argue Isildur would make the same decisions.” “What one discovers particularly since doing this job and being around fans who know much more than me is how dear Elendil is to everyone’s hearts, and it’s surprising because there’s very little written about him.”

'The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power': How Is Elendil Related ... (Showbiz Cheat Sheet)

'The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power' introduces viewers to Aragorn's ancestor Elendil. How exactly are the two characters related?

[The Rings of Power is set](https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/when-is-the-lord-of-the-rings-the-rings-of-power-set.html/) thousands of years before The Lord of the Rings trilogy. Of course, the The Lord of the Rings movies don’t really mention Elendil. [‘The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power’ Adds Another New Character — Who Is Adar?](https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/rings-of-power-adds-another-character-adar.html/) [The Rings of Power Episode 3](https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/lord-of-the-rings-the-rings-of-power-episode-3-release-date-time.html/) reveals who saved Galadriel and Halbrand at the end of episode 2. Tolkien’s writings](https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/the-lord-of-the-rings-the-rings-of-power-based-book.html/), Elendil is the one who establishes Gondor. Because an ancestor from Isildur’s line wed one of Anárion’s descendants, Aragorn has the blood of both brothers. The films don’t dive too deeply into the lineage of the character. But with The Rings of Power set so long before The Lord of the Rings trilogy, how is Elendil related to Aragorn? That’s right, The Rings of Power is introducing viewers to Aragorn’s ancestors. [The One Wiki to Rule Them All](https://lotr.fandom.com/wiki/Aragorn_II_Elessar) notes, Aragorn is the final descendant of both of Elendel’s sons. As one of his descendants, Aragorn has a claim to the kingdom’s throne. So, precisely how are the two related? That makes him an ancestor of fan-favorite
