In the epic film adaptations of The Lord of the Rings, Sauron is one of the first characters we meet. The Fellowship of the Ring opens with Lady Galadriel narrating the momentous war that closed the Second Age of Middle-earth as Sauron was defeated by the Last Alliance of Elves and Men. It’s a tense moment during the fierce battle when we realize the dark lord is approaching from the fearful reactions of men and elves alike. The nine-foot-tall, self-appointed ‘Lord of the Earth’ lived up to the hype. All spiked helmet, head to foot armor, and devastating attack moves, with the Ring of Power gleaming on his finger, we see him batter through swathes of soldiers.
But Sauron appears in quite a different form for most of The Lord of the Rings trilogy. It doesn’t look like a form that could do much with a ring, no matter how powerful it was. Despite that, Sauron was somehow far more menacing and charismatic like this than when he stomped onto the battlefield.
