When The Rings of Power season 3 arrived on Prime Video, it revealed just how deep into Tolkien’s lore the showrunners were ready to delve, especially with the revelation that one of the most powerful wizards in Middle-earth, Pallando, was hiding right under our noses.
If you’re wondering just who Pallando is in The Rings of Power season 3, here is everything we know so far.
Who is Pallando in Rings of Power season 3?
For those who haven’t read some of the more obscure writings of JRR Tolkien, the Blue Wizards were a group of Istari who travelled to the east of Middle-earth to try to weaken and circumvent Sauron. One of them was Pallando, who presumably failed in his quest.
That ambiguity was intentional by the Rings of Power showrunners. "The story of the Blue Wizards and the idea of Blue Wizards who went east is such a tantalising piece of the lore," showrunner JD Payne told Radio Times.
"It was one of the first things we talked about wanting to explore in the show, reaching that moment and figuring out who they were, and what they were about and what happened to them and his eventual fate."

"Part of why he’s in Middle-earth is to speak to the hearts of people and to take people who have turned to the darkness and try to turn them back to the light, and take people who have been estranged and try to bring them back into fellowship, to conquer a threat that is greater than either of them."
"Which I think is such a wonderful thing for Gandalf," Weyman added. "He does that. He warms the sort of embers of people's heart that have gone cold."
