Villain in the midst: The experiment of Sauron continues in ‘Rings of Power’ season 2

SINGAPORE – Who doesn’t love a good villain?

There’s this elusive pull that only the big bads seem to yield. The idea rings true across most of fiction. And for Charlie Vickers and Charles Edwards, The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power is no exception. 

“There’s something exciting I guess about watching a villain, particularly in a fantasy world, doing bad things but like, you’re kind of rooting for them?” Vickers told Rappler in an exclusive interview ahead of the show’s season 2 premiere.
