Bezos is known to be a fan of sci-fi/fantasy, including Tolkien. Variety mentioned this briefly in their initial reporting on the rumor of the series, and there's a video from some years ago (see here) of Bezos talking about some of his favorite books from his childhood, including TH and LOTR. He reportedly wanted Amazon to find "the next Game of Thrones" and while I'm sure this was mostly for commercial reasons, it seems that he has some personal interest in it as well. He was directly involved in the negotiations over the rights, according to the Variety piece linked above.
