Tolkien’s The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, during the Second Age of Middle-earth’s history, depicts Sauron’s rise to power and his quest to forge the One Ring to rule them all. Charlie Vickers plays Sauron in the series, and Season 3 welcomes several new actors into the mix, including Jamie Campbell Bower (Stranger Things), Eddie Marsan (Heartstopper) and Simon Pegg (Shaun of the Dead), who lends his voice to a Balrog.
