While The Rings of Power season 2 has wrapped up on Prime Video, a new fan theory has us reassessing the latest batch of episodes.
One of the major questions in the season has revolved around the Dark Wizard, played by Ciarán Hinds. While the season 2 finale seemed to confirm the mysterious character is none other than Saruman, the showrunners debunked that particular theory very quickly, leaving us to more speculation.
Now, a new theory suggests that the Dark Wizard is another major character from J.R.R. Tolkien’s works: the Witch-king. He’s one of the Ringwraiths, AKA one of the nine mortal men gifted a ring by Sauron.
