\"Director<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Amazon continues to pull from its bench of creatives as director Charlotte Br\u00e4ndstr\u00f6m joins the LORD OF THE RINGS TV series. The accomplished director previously worked on Amazon’s Man in the High Castle<\/em>, and more recently worked on Netflix’s two fantasy series The Witcher<\/em> and Jupiter’s Legacy<\/em>. Interestingly, most of her TV work is limited to two episodes per show, and the current rumors from @FansFellowship (who first reported her hiring) indicate she is working on the last two episodes of the first season of LOTR. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Br\u00e4ndstr\u00f6m is the first female Middle-earth director to hold the full title, following in the legacy of Fran Walsh and Philippa Boyens, who helped Peter Jackson direct some key scenes in his LOTR series (uncredited). She is based in Los Angeles as a graduate of the AFI film program, and speaks 4 languages: French, Swedish, English and Spanish, the latter to be very helpful as a collaborator with Spanish director JA Bayona, who is setting the tone for the entire series. She is currently in New Zealand directing the key episodes to close out the first season. Amazon has already committed to 5 seasons minimum, with S2 and S3 already in pre-production. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
