In the footage, the fierce battle of the main character Hela, who is entrusted with the battle that will determine the fate of Middle-earth and the future of the people of Rohan, and is prepared to die, is even more vividly emotional in the dubbed version. It is fully depicted as.
Producer Philippa Bowen, who wrote all the scripts for the Lord of the Rings series and was in charge of the original story for this film, said of the main character, “The Lord of the Rings” One of the reasons I was immediately drawn to the story of this work, which is told in “Supplementary Edition”, was the presence of this nameless woman.Even though she is at the core of the battle, she is named in the original work. I don’t think Tolkien, the original author, has forgotten her. I think he just couldn’t tell her story enough. It was very interesting work.”
In addition, “The original author Tolkien wrote in a letter, “Perhaps the deepest stories lie in the stories that have not been told.”We will once again step into the magnificent world of the original work.” I stepped into the book and pulled out all the stories written there, including the creatures full of fantasy. “However, the story is about humans. I think that is the strength of Tolkien’s stories.”As guided by Tolkien’s words, the story is about humans. He also revealed that he carefully unearthed the hidden stories that lie dormant in this world.
“This is a work that inherits the spirit of the live-action movie, which all Lord of the Rings fans can look forward to.It also includes hidden elements that only fans will understand, so you can find it.” I’m looking forward to it.”
