Amazon's Lord Of The Rings: Fan-Casting Every (Possible) Major Role
3. Galadriel - Saoirse Ronan
Heralded Irish actress Ronan can bring a large amount of gravitas to the powerful Elvin queen. Like her predecessor Cate Blanchett, she is an Academy Award nominee and well acquainted with Peter Jackson after working with him on The Lovely Bones.
The intimidating Galadriel would be quite the undertaking for any experienced entertainer. From her regal perch, she dictates political moves, wages war against the malicious beings in the realm, and utilizes her powers to protect her subjects. Blanchett's majestic grace kept audiences transfixed and her successor should uphold her level of sophistication in the series.
Ronan would no doubt portray the multifaceted aspects of Galadriel's past with brilliance in the prequel series. Her movies Brooklyn and Atonement demonstrate her aptitude for revealing the innermost feelings of dynamic female characters. Dubbed "the greatest of elven women", Galadriel calls for an accomplished artist who can inspire audiences with her vitality and keep her composure when necessary. Ronan always conveys a sense of strength even if her role happens to be a dead girl trying to avoid reality.
Tolkien's Unfinished Tales gives readers lots of background material about Galadriel. It's an amazing resource for the series writers, particularly because Galadriel's restless actions lead to some enticing drama in Tolkien's folklore. Ronan's current performance as the unruly Lady Bird in the film of the same name exemplifies why she's the optimal talent to showcase Galadriel's edgier behavior.
When seeking the imposing sovereign of the elves, Amazon should look no further than the decorated Ronan.
