A potentially ruinous moment that would've made the Dark Lord proud
Major spoilers are incoming. Turn back now if you're not caught up on The Rings of Power's latest episode!As viewers will have learned by now, Charlie Vickers' Halbrand was an alias of Sauron's all along.
It's a shot that acts as a clear call back to the Eye of Sauron, which is the only part of the Dark Lord's essence that remains – in Middle-earth's Third Age – following his defeat at the hands of the Last Alliance of Elves and Men. Payne and McKay, though, were worried that Bayona's creative choice would ruin the big surprise surrounding Halbrand's real identity. So much so, in fact, that they asked Bayona to shoot a different version of Halbrand's introduction.
"We were freaking out that people were going to see it and work it [Halbrand's real identity] out," Payne said."We asked J.A. to change it, but he said 'Nobody's going to notice!' Thankfully, they didn't."As Payne noted, very few – if any – Rings of Power viewers noticed the obvious reference to Halbrand's true form.
