The battle for Middle-earth begins in earnest.

Summary

The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers is the thrilling second installment in Peter Jackson’s adaptation of J.R.R. Tolkien’s epic saga. As the Fellowship is scattered across Middle-earth, Frodo (Elijah Wood) and Sam (Sean Astin) struggle onward to Mount Doom, guided by the treacherous Gollum (Andy Serkis). Meanwhile, Aragorn (Viggo Mortensen), Legolas (Orlando Bloom), and Gimli (John Rhys-Davies) aid the people of Rohan against Saruman’s advancing Uruk-hai army, culminating in the legendary Battle of Helm’s Deep. Elsewhere, Merry (Dominic Monaghan) and Pippin (Billy Boyd) rally the ancient Ents to wage war on Isengard. With groundbreaking visual effects, breathtaking battles, and deeply emotional storytelling, The Two Towers expands the scope of Middle-earth, delving into themes of hope, perseverance, and the growing shadow of war, cementing itself as one of the greatest fantasy films of all time.
