The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power is a series based on Tolkien’s world, but the absence of canon characters has caused controversy. In seasons 1 and 2, the character was completely absent. Prime Video left the character out for a variety of reasons, but fans were disappointed, especially because it missed the opportunity to delve deeper into the relationship between Galadriel and Elrond.
In season 1, many of the stories were compressed by changing Tolkien’s story. For example, the Balrog’s awakening in Khazad-dûm and the Istari’s arrival in Middle-earth were sped up. These changes had a huge impact on the storyline, and season 2 had the task of justifying those decisions.
However, even after season 2, we still don’t know where Celeborn is. The character’s absence is something that must be addressed in the context of the larger story. Many fans have been hoping that the character would be included in the story somehow. Celeborn played an important role in Tolkien’s works.
That’s why “The Lord of the Rings: The Ring of Power” must now provide a clear answer to the position and role of this character. It can no longer be hidden or avoided. The need for this character to appear in Season 3 has become greater. The audience no longer wants to have questions. If this series wants to capture the true essence of Tolkien, it must clearly show the position of all the characters and how their stories are connected.

Rings of Power Season 3, Celeborn’s Return is a Must
There is a really important reason why Celeborn must be brought back in “Rings of Power” Season 3. In Season 1, his relationship with Galadriel was confusing. In Tolkien’s canon, they were married for a long time, but on screen, Galadriel seemed single. In the end, the elf mentions that her husband is dead, but this part seems even more ambiguous. Galadriel believes she will never see Celeborn again, but this will obviously be refuted later during the events of The Lord of the Rings.
It is said that Galadriel lost Celeborn during her fight against Morgoth in The Power of the Ring, but there is no detailed explanation for it. This only makes fans even more confused. Although the showrunners mentioned that Celeborn would eventually return, we did not see him in season 2. It is understandable to forget him, given the big events of the Battle of Eregion, but it would be a mistake to continue to bury such an important character in mystery.
Prime Video is said to have plans for a fifth season of the series. If Celeborn does return in season 5, it would be a huge blow to his character and Galadriel’s story. The audience wants to see him in season 3, and his absence is unacceptable.
I think season 3 is the last chance for Celeborn to appear. The fans have been waiting for him, so it would be great if he could return. The relationship between Galadriel and Celeborn is one of the core elements of the series, so it would be a shame to overlook that. Now is a good time for the story that fans want, so it is important to bring Celeborn back.
Celeborn’s Absence, a Key Role in Galadriel’s Ring of Power Story
Considering how Celeborn’s absence helped Galadriel in the “Ring of Power” story, the decision seems pretty obvious. In season 1, Galadriel’s story is driven by her unique relationship with Halbrand. This friendship also has a bit of a romantic element, which made it even more emotional when his true identity is revealed to be Sauron. The chemistry between Galadriel and Halbrand continued into Season 2 and was instrumental in proving that she was not seduced by Sauron.
If Celeborn had been present, Galadriel’s choices would have been different. Celeborn’s presence would have been a huge burden as she tried to overcome Sauron’s temptation. That’s why she had to be single. Galadriel had to focus solely on destroying Sauron, leaving behind love and family. This further deepens her inner conflict.
Now that Galadriel has declared that “the door is closed,” her story takes a new turn. Celeborn’s absence serves as a powerful reminder of the hardships Galadriel has endured and her determination. Because she was focused solely on her goal, without the need for love or community, the story could have been more intense and dramatic.
Ultimately, Galadriel must now have a vision of the future she has fought for, and Celeborn will play a key role in that process. Galadriel’s journey is now entering a new chapter, and fans are eager to see how Celeborn will fit into the story.
In addition to Galadriel and Celeborn, the return of her missing daughter Celebrian is needed
Of course, Celeborn isn’t the only person who’s important to Galadriel in “Rings of Power.” At this point in the story, Galadriel should already have a daughter, a celebrity. According to Tolkien’s canon, Celebrian eventually meets and falls in love with Elrond. However, it’s unclear whether Galadriel believes Celebrian is dead or if she hasn’t been born yet. This leaves viewers wondering.
Galadriel is a complex character with multiple storylines. In Seasons 1 and 2, she’s been through a lot as she’s fought against Sauron’s temptations. But now, it’s important to emphasize that she deserves happiness. The introduction of Celebrian would provide an opportunity to further deepen Galadriel’s character. The theme of family is a huge part of the series, and Galadriel’s reunion with her daughter could have an emotional impact on viewers.
Celebrities could be a crucial link in Galadriel’s story, and her presence could help Galadriel grow and change even more. If she were to appear in the episode, she would be a great help in helping Galadriel overcome her past pain and embrace a new future.
In conclusion, even without Celeborn, Galadriel’s family still has an important story to tell. Celebrian’s presence would enrich her journey and provide an opportunity to further express Galadriel’s path to happiness. I’m looking forward to seeing how this series unfolds.
