Actress Morfydd Clark didn’t know she landed the role of Galadriel when she came to New Zealand to shoot The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power.

The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power has finally made its debut on Prime Video, and now it’s actress Morfydd Clark to talk and reveal how she found out at the very last minute that for the occasion she was supposed to play an iconic character and loved as Galadriel.

“I didn’t know I was going to play Galadriel when I arrived in New Zealand,” Morfydd Clark tells Variety. and we thought I was going to play Celebrian, his daughter because maybe I just couldn’t imagine being able to lend the face to Galadriel. “

A condition that apparently, he shared with all the cast members, each unaware of their character until the last: “So I arrived in New Zealand not knowing who I was going to bring to the screen and looking back, it’s really crazy. everyone in the cast was like that. We all plunged headlong into this crazy venture, and we met there. And only upon my arrival did I find out who I was going to play, and there I had to recalibrate for a moment because I couldn’t believe it! “.

And now The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power is one of the most masterful productions ever, with a very high budget and more than 50 or so scheduled episodes.

Still, Clark explains that it’s not something you usually focus on when auditioning: “When you’re auditioning for productions like this, you never think you’re going to get the role, so you don’t start counting [ how many episodes will possibly be, etc.]. I personally refuse to allow myself to imagine these things, to daydream, ahead of time. Otherwise, you form a strong attachment to everything you audition for. “

“I think I’m still trying to get used to all of this and what it means. The next few weeks are going to be very important for that, but it’s also a relief. You realize these things for people to enjoy. And it was time for that too. But it was also a relief. I think I’ll spend another time trying to acclimate to everything “concludes the actress.

The first two episodes of The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power are now available on Amazon Prime Video.
