This exciting new anime-inspired Lord of the Rings tale, set 183 years before the events chronicled in the original trilogy of films, tells the fate of the House of Helm Hammerhand, the legendary King of Rohan.

A sudden attack by Wulf, a clever and ruthless Dunlending lord, forces Helm and his people to make a daring last stand. Finding herself in an increasingly desperate situation, Héra, the daughter of Helm, must summon the will to lead the resistance against a deadly enemy intent on their total destruction.

Under the direction of award-winning filmmaker Kenji Kamiyama (Blade Runner: Black Lotus, Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex), the voice cast is led by Brian Cox (Succession) as Helm Hammerhand, the mighty King of Rohan; Gaia Wise (A Walk in the Woods) as his daughter Héra; and Luke Pasqualino (Snowpiercer) as Wulf. Miranda Otto, who delivered an unforgettable performance in The Lord of the RingsTrilogy, reprises her role as Éowyn, Shieldmaiden of Rohan, who serves as the tale’s narrator.

F-Rated: co-written by Phoebe Gittins, from a story by Philippa Boyens
