Amazon Prime Video’s The Rings of Power took us back to the massive world ofThe Lord of the Rings. The new TV showintroduced us to young Galadriel, Elrond, and several other familiar characters from J.R.R. Tolkien’s books. However, the third episode of the series also teased anew character named Adar, possibly a rogue Elf who is leading the Orcs' army to capture the Southern Lands.

It’s been several years since Morgoth’s defeat, and Sauron is still forging a stronger army by staying in hiding. Galadriel, the royal Elf warrior, learns that Sauron’s sigil is actually a map of the Southern Lands, where Adar has captured Arondir and other Elves. So, we might see Galadriel leaving (or escaping) Numenor to reach the Southern Lands in the hopes of finding Sauron. Honestly, it’s hard to say if we’ll see Galadriel’s confrontation with Sauron soon, as the Elf has to deal with Adar before reaching the Dark Lord. Regardless, we’ll first learn about Adar and his purpose in Episode 4, which is only a few hours away from its release.
Episode 4 of The Rings of Power is scheduled to release onFriday, September 16th, 2022, at 12 AM ET (Easter Timing).The episode will be available to stream onPrime Video, but its release time will vary depending on your region. Also, fans in some regions will get the episode onThursday, September 15th, because of the time difference. Anyway, here’s the exact release schedule you must follow to watch the fourth episode in these regions:
Season 1 of the Rings of Power will feature a total of eight episodes, and the upcoming episode will serve as the mid-season finale. So, we can expect the fourth episode to be more action-packed, especially with a primary focus on Adar and his army. Also, the third episode of the series was more than 1 hour long, so we can expect the next episode to feature a similar runtime.
