“Tolkien is turning in his grave,” Musk wrote in reference to the series’ late author J.R.R. Tolkien. “Almost every male character so far is a coward, a jerk or both. Only Galadriel is brave, smart and nice,” he added.

After the two tech titans competed over their space ventures, Musk’s SpaceX and Bezos’ Blue Origin, Musk’s appears to play into his rivalry with Amazon’s billionaire founder Jeff Bezos.

Meanwhile, Rings of Power is set “thousands of years before the events of The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, and will take viewers back to an era in which great powers were forged, kingdoms rose to glory and fell to ruin, unlikely heroes were tested, hope hung by the finest of threads, and the greatest villain that ever flowed from Tolkien’s pen threatened to cover all the world in darkness,” the logline reads.

The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power is available to stream on Prime Video.
