The departure of Nazanin Boniadi, a key figure in The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power, has been officially confirmed, leaving fans and viewers eagerly anticipating the next season.

Boniadi, who brilliantly portrayed the character of Bronwyn in the first season of the Prime Video series, has now revealed to The Hollywood Reporter that she will not be reprising her role in The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power Season 2.

About three weeks ago, Boniadi announced on Instagram that she would give up acting in September 2022 "to focus solely on the #WomanLifeFreedom uprising in Iran and to advocate for the people of my homeland who have been risking everything for freedom."


"Despite my passion for acting, I knew it would take a very special project to convince me to once again split my time between my day job and my calling as an activist," the post continues. "A Mosquito in the Ear is that project — an adaptation of the Italian graphic novel Una Zanzara nell'Orecchio from Andrea Ferraris, and the feature directorial debut from the extremely talented BAFTA Newcomer Director, Nicola Rinciari."

According to the synopsis, Sauron returned to The Rings of Power in season two. After being cast out by Galadriel, the rising Dark Lord is left to rely on his cunning to regain his strength and supervise the construction of the Rings of Power, enabling him to subjugate all Middle-earth peoples to his evil will.


The new season builds on the grand scope and ambition of the first, submerging even its most cherished and defenseless characters in a rising tide of darkness and forcing them all to find their place in a world that is getting closer and closer to impending disaster. 

As friendships grow strained and kingdoms start to fall apart, elves and dwarves, orcs and men, wizards and Harfoots—the forces of good will fight even harder to cling to what matters most to them—each other. 

August 29, 2024, marks the premiere of The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power Season 2. You can watch the first season on Amazon Prime Video right now.
