Charles Edwards On The Lord of the Rings: Rings of the Power
Charles Edwards plays Celebrimbor, the Elven smith who forges the Rings of Power. He is a brilliant artisan known throughout Middle-earth and strikes up a friendship with the dwarves in nearby Khazad-dûm. Eventually, however, he is manipulated into crafting several rings of power which help kickstart Sauron’s inevitable rise.
Charles’s Celebrimbor is mentioned in the Lord of the Rings on the council of Elrond. J. R. R. Tolkien mentions him when he is recounting the tale of the forging of the rings of power and Celebrimbor also made what contributed to the creation of The Doors of Durin in Moria. Other than that, Celebrimbor only gets two mentions in the Lord of the Rings. But, in the author’s appendices, when we further go into the Second Age, which is where the new show takes its inspiration from, Charles’s character has been sketched out a bit further.
Charles dived deeper into his character also during his recent chats with Variety. He also talked about being a literal fan of Lord of the Rings as a child.
Had he not bagged the role he got he always wanted to play Sam among Tolkien characters.
