That's a huge delay between it's debut and release in cinemas. I wonder why such a delay of almost a full year.

April 12, 2024 has always been the announced day of release. Admittedly, I didn't expect the film to be finished for a while yet. Maybe this is a rough cut? Do animated films even have rough cuts?

My understanding is that The Lord of the Rings: The War of the Rohirrim is NOT completed. What will be shown at the festival is a preview: one or more clips and perhaps some other material.

It occurs to me that, due to the ongoing writers' strike, Philippa Boyens might not be able to participate in the presentation.

This animated prequel set 260 years before the cult trilogy is inspired by the Appendices provided by JRR Tolkien at the end of The Return of the King (Appendix A, Chapter II: The House of Eorl). This is a curious one since earlier publicity material has stated events occur 183 years before the events chronicled in the original trilogy of films. Even factoring in the canonical delay between Bilbo’s party and Frodo setting out for Rivendell, something still seems wrong. It’s also … well… trivial, so I’ll return to this weirdness when I have time. 260 years before the end of the War of the Ring (Third Age 3019) is book-accurate for the death of Helm Hammerhand.
Three non-finalized excerpts were broadcast in exclusive preview during this panel. The opening sequence, introducing the character of Hera, a dialogue scene in King Helm’s throne room, and finally a short teaser announcing the film’s main action scenes. No Eowyn seemingly? Kinda surprsing [sic], but I’ll take a cookie for guessing Edoras would feature. Hera and Helm suggests to me that the familial relationships will be critical. Hera may end up our viewpoint character. Why? She survives wheras [sic] all her close kin — Helm, Haleth and Hama — perish. Eowyn must enter as narrator at some other point in the film.
IMPORTANT (because i know a lot of people will wonder): Producer Jason DeMarco clarified about the status of the footage shown to attendees — “We presented work in progress for attendees of the festival but it won’t be widely released.” Surely there is something that can be released online: New production art; animatics; something?

I did notice that he refers his readers to TORn's Discord server for a discussion of his article. Nothing about these here ancient Message Boards... ...even by TORN staff? Anyway, the film description is interesting, especially the character notes. I'm about to read up on the Lady of Mercians as she's new to me.
