About this deal

In 1977, an animated adaptation of The Hobbit was produced as a TV special by Rankin and Bass, and in 1978 Ralph Bakshi made an animated feature of the first half of The Lord of the Rings. While profitable, the film did not make enough money to automatically warrant the sequel which would close the story, and an argument with producer Saul Zaentz led Bakshi to abandon the project. Rankin/Bass then followed in 1980 with an animated TV adaptation of The Return of the King. Several other Tolkienesque fantasy films were produced at the time, including Jim Henson and Frank Oz's The Dark Crystal and Lucas's Willow.

Isildur – who sets The Lord of the Rings' events in motion when he refused to destroy the One Ring – is part of proceedings. He's played by Maxim Baldry (Years and Years). When we first meet him, he's a Númenorian sailor and not the warrior who ends Sauron's tightening grip on Middle-earth in the Second Age. Lloyd Owen (Monarch of the Glen) is Elendil, the future High King of Gondor and Arnor. Ema Horvath (What Lies Below) plays Eärien, an original character and Elendil's daughter.
