Actor Charles Edwards Thrives in His Fated Role in Amazon's Rings of Power
Join us as we delve into season two of Rings of Power where the chilling specter of darkness is no longer a distant threat, but a looming presence. And who's better to get a front-row seat to this grim reality than the cunning and intelligent Elven protagonist, Celebrimbor, portrayed by Charles Edwards? Yep, we know where this is heading, but that doesn't dampen our excitement. After all, isn't the drama of a ticking time bomb part of the allure?
Like a well-seasoned actor, Edwards embraces the clandestine truth about Celebrimbor's fate. It's a tantalizing role to play, don't you think? This character has a predestined doom, yet oblivious in every moment, reveling in hope and confusion, unaware of the storm gathering on the horizon. Edwards' approach is simple: play the honesty of this character, embrace the deception that plagues his mind, and weave a captivating, gut-wrenching narrative.
During a recent press event, Edwards explained, "Obviously, you know that's coming and that's part of the appeal of playing such a character. It's a powerful moment, but you're not brooding on that in the moment because the character doesn't know that's happening. You can delight in his innocence, vulnerability, and confusion knowing where he's headed all along."
In the coming season, expect Celebrimbor's vulnerability to shine through, even as he confronts a mysterious figure, who (spoiler alert!) is none other than the infamous Sauron, masquerading as Annatar. "I just tried to play the pureness of this at all times," Edwards said, echoing Charlie Vickers' thoughts about Sauron's disguise. "Sauron f*cks with his head, leading him down dark paths. But he doesn't realize where his head is. He believes it will be a fruitful collaboration."
