As it turns out, the dynamic between Galadriel and Sauron in ‘Rings of Power’ was inspired by Tolkien himself

The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power remains controversial for allegedly going against the established canon of Middle-earth, but according to showrunners J.D. Payne and Patrick McKay, the questionable dynamic between Galadriel and Sauron was actually outlined by none other than Tolkien himself in The Fellowship of the Ring and subsequently the Unfinished Tales book.

Following that all too predictable twist in the Rings of Power finale where Halbrand unmasked himself as Sauron and tricked the Elves into forging the three rings of power, a lot of fans simultaneously began wondering the same thing: Why would Sauron go into all of that trouble to trick Galadriel? And what’s with his insistence to install the Lady of Galadhrim as his queen?
