The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim | "Helm"
Helm Hammerhand’s name echoes across the ages. Prepare to see why in #LOTR: The War of the Rohirrim, only in theaters December 13.
Peter Jackson presents a groundbreaking journey back to Middle-earth through the eyes of legendary director Kenji Kamiyama.
New Line Cinema’s original anime feature “The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim” returns audiences to the epic world brought to life in “The Lord of the Rings” Trilogy, based on the revered books by J.R.R. Tolkien.
Under the direction of award-winning filmmaker Kenji Kamiyama (the “Blade Runner: Black Lotus” and “Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex” TV series), the talented 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, award-winning performance in “The Lord of the Rings” Trilogy, reprises her role as Éowyn, Shieldmaiden of Rohan, who serves as the tale’s narrator. The voice ensemble also includes Lorraine Ashbourne (Netflix’s “Bridgerton”), Yazdan Qafouri (“I Came By”), Benjamin Wainwright (“World on Fire”), Laurence Ubong Williams (“Gateway”), Shaun Dooley (“The Witcher”), Michael Wildman (“Fast and Furious Presents: Hobbs & Shaw”), Jude Akuwudike (“Beasts of No Nation”), Bilal Hasna (“Sparks”) and Janine Duvitski (“Benidorm”).
Set 183 years before the events chronicled in the original trilogy of films, “The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim” 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 seeking vengeance for the death of his father, forces Helm and his people to make a daring last stand in the ancient stronghold of the Hornburg— a mighty fortress that will later come to be known as Helm’s Deep. 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.
With Kamiyama at the helm, the original feature is being produced by Oscar winner Philippa Boyens, from the screenwriting team behind “The Lord of the Rings” and “The Hobbit” Trilogies, alongside Jason DeMarco and Joseph Chou, who, in addition to their many separate animation projects, collaborated on the “Blade Runner: Black Lotus” series. The executive producers are Fran Walsh, Peter Jackson, Sam Register, Carolyn Blackwood and Toby Emmerich. The screenplay is by Jeffrey Addiss & Will Matthews and Phoebe Gittins & Arty Papageorgiou, story by Addiss & Matthews and Boyens, based on characters created by J.R.R. Tolkien. The team of creative collaborators returning from “The Lord of the Rings” Trilogy also includes Oscar winners Alan Lee and Richard Taylor, along with esteemed Tolkien illustrator John Howe.
A New Line Cinema Presentation, a Warner Bros. Animation / Sola Entertainment Production, “The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim,” will be distributed theatrically worldwide by Warner Bros. Pictures, released in cinemas nationwide on December 13, 2024, and internationally beginning 11 December 2024.
W*ke trash with strong female characters and a thin story with more plot hole than Swiss cheese.
You should go see this movie if you are a Lord of The Rings fan. Happy this film came out in the holiday's in December.
We're fed up with the imposition of strong female characters in movies, TV shows, and games. Enough. ENOUGH!
Lord of the rings is about flawed people working together with other flawed people to overcome their flaws and weaknesses to defeat evil
This movie is about a perfect person who has no flaws who does everything themselves.
Would you like lord of the rings if Frodo sets out on the quest by himself without the fellowship and singehandily destorys entire armies and the ring while resisting the ring and without any struggle or hardship while insulting and humilating everyone he encounters.
Does that sound fun? No
Thats what this movie is all about the main character is perfect with no flaws
Fvck this movie i hope it flops HARD
All you need was to be loyal to the sources and you would have made an amazing project and you ruined it.
Why "ANIME"?? WHY NOT HUMAN?!! WEIRD WEIRD
Looks good I can't wait to watch the movie
Wulf is the only reason I will watch this
The guy that's being sidelined in his own story….
WB is run by actual morons
looks dogshit
More or less same arc as Eowyn but this time she will be a modern-sounding feminist girl boss.
I don't mind some anime, but I'm really tired of seemingly most animation being done in this style.
This is going to be awful.
insurgence of LoTR lore in series and movies make me wanna read more about stories of Middle Earth other than LoTR and The Hobbit trilogy. how to start reading about these stories for beginner?
Another girlboss bs, I will be skipping this modern audience manure very hard, maybe pirate it a few months down the line
Notice how Helm and his sons were mentioned in great detail, but Helm having a daughter was an off hand mention in the appendices? Another girl boss geared up to fail, just give us Tolkien not the message.
People calling this movie "woke" already, meanwhile the trailer: muscular old bearded badass dad frickin punching a TROLL
I was very hopeful about this production… but with all feminism empowerment / woke cr4p content… I'm out!!!
“To whom are you pledged” “DEATH” I’m so excited for this
A 2-D animated movie rated PG-13 hitting theaters?
