The Lord of the Rings prequel, The Rings of Power, left viewers with some pressing questions about a mysterious stranger who fell from the sky in the premiere. Meanwhile, Galadriel (played by Morfydd Clark) abandoned the rest of her people to track down Sauron. Express.co.uk has all you need to know about what time the third episode is out. 

What time is The Rings of Power episode 3 out? 

Viewers were treated to a bumper premiere with the first two episodes airing back to back for the big launch. 

However, for the next few weeks until the series finale, the episodes will be released once a week on Fridays. 

The third instalment has been teased on Amazon Prime Video and it shows the Elven army facing new threats. 

Galadriel is trying to convince more people to join her cause as she hunts down Sauron, who has been in hiding. 

Meanwhile, in the realm of Man, Sauron’s name sends a shiver down everyone’s spines. 

Episode three is scheduled to arrive at midnight Eastern Time on September 9th in the US. 

The episode will only be available to stream on Prime Video and this is the case for both fans in the UK and the US. 

For UK viewers, they will have to wait until 2am BST on Friday for the next episode. 

The release schedule for the remaining episodes is as follows:

Episode four: September 16

Episode 5: September 23

Episode 6: September 30

Episode 7: October 7

Episode 8: October 14

Arondir (Ismael Cruz Córdova) fell into a trap in the first two episodes and in the new instalment, he is seen fighting his way out of danger. 

In the trailer for the third episode, viewers hear: “Each of us, every one, must decide who we shall be.”

Galadriel is heard saying: “He has not one name, but many,” and it is not clear whether she is referring to Sauron or the anonymous man who fell from the sky. 

There is a lot of speculation around who he could be, and hopefully, episode three will shed some light on his true identity. 

He has an interest in the stars and appears eager for help to get back to where he came from. 

Some fans have suggested he could be one of the wizards from the original films, either Gandalf or Saruman. 

However, other fans have suggested he is a force of evil, who has perhaps been following Sauron for many years. 

The trailer continues with Galadriel saying: “There is a tempest in me,” while another voice advises: “Find the light and the shadow will not find you.”

The original Lord of the Rings cast have stood up to defend the new prequel after it received racist backlash. 

Elijah Wood, Billy Boyd and Dominic Monaghan hit back against some viewers who were upset by the casting of black actors in prominent roles.

The trio posed for a photo wearing t-shirts that feature the ears of Middle-earth characters with various skin tones. “You are all welcome,” Wood’s caption said.
