Silm Film will be returning for Season 5 on Thursday March 26th, 2020 at 10 PM Eastern Time. For now, enjoy the brief hiatus.
Season 5 will begin with the introduction of Men in Beleriand, and end with the duel of Fingolfin and Morgoth after the Dagor Bragollach.
The passage of time will significantly impact the human characters in the story during Season 5, which covers a long span of time (multiple lifetimes of Men).
Storylines in the upcoming season include: Bëor and Finrod, Eöl and Aredhel (and Maeglin), Andreth and Aegnor, Haleth, and the end of the Siege of Angband.
Generally, pre-production focuses on storylines for the season, choosing a Frame story for the season, and breaking down the content of the 13 episodes into a season outline. It's also the time to discuss themes for the season. Season 4 focused on Reconciliation. Season 1 focused on Collaboration. Typically, we also have to choose a beginning and ending point, but in this case, we've already done that.
