The Rings Of Power Season 1 Storyline We Never Got To See Due To Celebrimbor’s Recasting

Way back in July of 2021 (more than a year before “The Rings of Power” premiered) another fan site, TheOneRing.net, released an exclusive spy report with a buffet of rumors and claims. The list included the first mention of Harfoots and downplayed the rumor that “Game of Thrones”-style nudity would be rampant in the show (both of which were spot-on). It was also claimed that Sauron would not be revealed in Season 1, which was close, but no cigar.

Tucked away in the lengthy list was a minor two-part item that said the ring-maker, Celebrimbor, had been recast and that

How The Lord Of The Rings Would Change If Bilbo Had Killed Gollum

before the events of The Lord of the Rings, Bilbo Baggins had an opportunity to kill Gollum, and if he had, the subsequent plot surrounding Frodo and the One Ring would have looked very different. As a secondary antagonist, it seems that the way forward for the protagonists would have been easier if Gollum hadn’t been there to cause so much trouble. However, as Gandalf said in The Lord of the RingsGollum had a critical part to play in the War of the Ring.

Bilbo met Gollum in The Hobbits, and their iconic battle of wits left the
