If you're worried that the Orcs in the second age as depicted in Amazon's upcoming The Lord of the Rings prequel won't look as terrifying as Saruman and Sauron's machinations in the Third Age, think again.
Prime Video and photographer, Matt Grace, just shared via IGN our first look at the Orcs of the second age.
Check out the images below to see them for yourself:
Orcs, not Uruks, are different from those that you might have seen in Peter Jack's successful movie trilogies, The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings. Instead of the massive armies led by Saruman the White and the Sauron, the Orcs of the Second Age are less of a horde and more of scattered scavengers. Specifically, these Orcs are the few that remain of the former elves that were hunted to near-extinction near the end of the First Age.
Having said that, the Orcs of the Rings of Power don't look like they'll be any less terrifying than their purposely bred future brethren.
