“The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power” tells the story thousands of years before the events of “The Hobbit” and “The Lord of the Rings”. And its production cost also stunned fans and industry insiders, with an average cost of $57 million for a single episode!
And it has eight episodes in its first season, which shows its great ambition. It has also become the new most expensive American drama.
Looking down on its cost, the next one is the fourth season of “Stranger Things”, and the production cost of each episode is as high as 30 million US dollars, which is higher than the production cost of many Hollywood A-level blockbusters.

The first seasons of “Loki”, “The Falcon and the Winter Soldier”, “Hawkeye”, and “Moon Knight” followed, which also hit $25 million.
The single episode of “WandaVision” previously broadcast also reached as high as 20 million-25 million US dollars, and the single episodes of the first and second seasons of “The Mandalorian” reached 15 million US dollars!
In the end, it is still necessary to take out the eighth season of “Game of Thrones”, which is still being madly “whip corpse” by fans and shouted for refund. Its single cost has also reached 15 million US dollars. I have to say that the American drama is really too curly.
“The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power” will be officially launched in September this year, and interested viewers should look forward to it.
