It's undoubtedly hard to do this sort of thing well.
e.g. I fully understood the decision of the makers of the [rather mixed] 00s 'Troy'/Iliad adaptation not to include the gods at all, indeed to barely mention them, even though, as adaptations which deviate drastically from the source material go, this was a decision on at least the scale of, hypothetically, trying to make a version of LoTR with zero 'magical' or supernatural elements, including magical rings.
but they are going to have to try, undoubtedly. I'm not sure that the difference between "the Valar" and "the One" is such an important one for this audience.
