To my surprise, I am actually looking forward to that.

Apparently, Bronwyn will not be a returning character in Season 2, even though her son Theo and her Elf lover Arondir will be.

‘The Rings Of Power’ Actress Nazanin Boniadi Not Returning For Season 2
There is a scene in the trailer in which Theo appears to be weeping. I would guess that his mother is killed off.Lord of the Rings: Rings of Power actress Nazanin Boniadi won’t be returning as her human healer character Bronwyn for season 2 of the Prime Video series.
Deadline has also confirmed that Boniadi’s role has not been recast. Bronwyn is the mother of Theo (Tyroe Muhafidin) and the lover of elf warrior Arondir (Ismael Cruz Cordova). Both Muhafidin and Cordova are returning for season 2. Bronwyn didn’t make an appearance in the recent teaser trailer for season 2 of Rings of Power.

Re: The all too early Season Two thread (possible spoilers)
I will be interested in Rings of Power. I think my take on this, is there is the written word, what Tolkien wrote and for me that is the key. I love reading and forming interpretations from the writing. Both Peter Jackson's adaptations and Rings of Power Adaptations are that, visual adaptations of Tolkien. I think the difference between the books and the visual adaptations reflect an ever increase in our society to move to visual stimulation instead of reading, analyzing and creating meaning. That saddens me as I see that in education as I begin to come near the end of my career (5-6 years left).
Now, having said that, and making it clear I much more prefer reading Tolkien's books and material and making meaning from it, I do enjoy the visuals and have decided to just go along with the ride. I ever hope it makes some get into Tolkien's writings and the visual representations serve as an invitation to learn more.

The world is indeed full of peril, and in it, there are many dark places; but still, there is much that is fair, and though in all lands, love is now mingled with grief, it grows perhaps the greater.

I would have expected a longer beard, but otherwise, I like the look.

"I'm liking what I'm seeing for this season. If they can stay away from the bad 'The Sea is Always Right' stuff, it should be pretty good. With three episodes landing on August 29th, I'll watch them, then wait five weeks so I can binge the rest. (I doubt I'll hold out, but will likely binge through them all for a 2nd viewing.
