As is well known in Tolkien lore, Celebrimbor is the elven creator who forges the rings of power that are later given to the realms of elves, dwarves, and men. In the original writing of the Silmarilion, Celebrimbor is an unfortunate character, tricked into this construction of evil objects by Sauron in disguise. But will the Rings of Power portray him as such, or will they take his character in a different direction from that which Tolkien intended? From what fans have seen of Celebrimbor’s characterization so far, there is already a questionable element to his motivations and intentions. There appear to be key differences from the original character.
