The Storyline
Set 183 years before the events of Peter Jackson's The Lord of the Rings trilogy, The War of the Rohirrim delves into the epic tale of Helm Hammerhand, the legendary King of Rohan. The film chronicles Helm's valiant efforts to defend his kingdom against the invading armies of Dunland, also known as the "Black Dunlendings." These events ultimately lead to Helm's name being forever etched into the history of Middle-earth, as his steadfast defense of the fortress would later earn it the name Helm's Deep.
 
The movie also introduces an original character, Hera, Helm's unnamed daughter in Tolkien's appendices. Hera's story provides a fresh perspective, adding depth to the narrative and spotlighting the sacrifices and strength of Rohan's royal family during this pivotal time.
 
Production and Direction
The movie is directed by acclaimed filmmaker Kenji Kamiyama, known for his work on visually stunning projects like Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex. A talented team, including Jeffrey Addiss, Will Matthews, Phoebe Gittins, and Arty Papageorgiou, penned the script. Gittins and Papageorgiou have reimagined and expanded upon the appendices of Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings, ensuring the story stays true to its roots while introducing new elements.
