Jamie Campbell Bower has been cast as Celeborn in The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power.
The 37-year-old actor, who is best known for his role as Henry Creel/Vecna in Stranger Things, was previously revealed to be joining upcoming season of the fantasy series and now his character has been confirmed.
As announced by Empire magazine, he will be playing Celeborn, husband of Morfydd Clark's character Galadriel.
The Elf Lord was previously played by Marton Csokas in Peter Jackson's original The Lord of the Rings movie trilogy.
Jamie described the character as a "lover-boy", while offering a hint of his inspiration for the role.
He said: "This idea of longing and yearning is so pervasive in Tolkien’s relationship with Edith for the time that they were apart.
"Celeborn has had to find a way to survive whilst longing for something that he so dearly loved and so dearly missed as well."
