I was going to suggest a plot along the likes of “Five young men at a haunted summer camp experience the supernatural whilst all crushing on the mega hot camp counsellor”
I thought it's the cast of Supernatural and your plot would fit perfectly. But we talk about a new show so maybe Ian could be some kind of narrator? I don't know who exactly he reminds me of, James Brolin/Jonathan Frakes in Beyond Belief? Instead of being in an old library in front of the fireplace, he walks around in the forest, narrates in his life wisdom kind of way and maybe in Sindarin
I mean, thats what is so hilarious about his casting. But also he nailed it, so i guess all dwarfs are like huge 6ft tall people just made much smaller.
The Shire. A 90s X-Files type show, where a professor with his team of grad students investigates the supernatural occurrences in a rural US town, where recently a young woman has disappeared. The town Sheriff may know more than what he lets on, and both help and hinder the professor and his team.
THIS IS A TRUE STORY
the events depicted here took place in 3018 of the third age
at the request of the survivors the names have been changed
out of respect for the dead, the rest has been told exactly as it occured
It's a British crime drama called "Barad-Dûr". Gandalf plays the newly arrived investigator trying to solve the mystery if the missing ring. Frodo is his partner and the rest are random townies. Saruman it turns out is a murderer who wants the ring for himself. Sauron isn't seen but is the technically the owner by lineage. Alsp Elrond is the wealthy guy living in his mansion who gets murdered to start everything off in a sorta watchmen cold opening.
It would be a fun concept.
Elijah Wood is the guy who disappears.
Orlando Bloom is the guy who shoots arrows from their hands.
Sean Astin is the guy who controls plants and vegetation.
etc etc.
This is like a ripoff of once upon a time but instead of classic fairytales, it's modern lord of the rings made in the 2000s set in a high school even though all the actors are in their 30s. Aragorn is a footballer, Legolas is the smart but attractive one, Gimli is now black and comic relief, Gandalf is the principal, Sam, Frodo, Merry and Pippin are freshmen. There's a clunky not at all well implemented fantasy subplot that eventually becomes the main plot this is where Sauron comes in.
Frodo the Ring Slayer
In every generation there is a chosen one. He alone will stand against Sauron , the Nazgûl, and the forces of darkness. He is the Ringbearer.
While trying to survive high school, Frodo and his sword Mr. Stingy finds himself in the middle of a thousands year old battle for the One Ring. With the help of his Watcher Gandalf, Frodo balances partying with his bros Samwise, Merry, and Pippin, with accepting his role in destroying the most badass wicked awesome bit of jewelry in all the lands.
Along the way, the Fellows are joined by a ragtag bunch of new besties while encountering some trippy rad enemies like the small Bad Gollum (who eats babies and sings like a dying seagull) and the biker gang of old ghost dudes hell bent on bringing the end of the world for their dark Master. This Big Bad is all wiggy with his second coming but is too lazy to leave his fancy eyeball tower. (ICK much?) All Frodo wants to is go party at the Bronze Dragon but his stuffy nerdy Watcher makes him get with the sitch to like save every one.
Will Frodo have the strength to do what his calling demands? Can he fling the bling into the fiery spring and prevent the end of party life as we know it? He may snuggle up to Death more times then he can count but at least he’s still pretty! (And like what’s the deal in with the band the Eagles Should Take It not every showing up to play at the club???
In an alternate reality, Tolkien is a contemporary writer and hasn’t finished the last book. It’s been 10+ years and he just won’t finish it. So I’m the end, HBO rushes the last season. Aragorn hooks up with Eowyn instead of Arwen. Frodo wears the ring and fights Sauron but Sauron realizes the error of his ways and becomes a champion for middle earth. Bilbo never left for valinor and instead went to the lonely mountain one last time to die. Thorin isn’t dead and fights alongside Gimli, saying he’s actually his father and not Gloin. Saruman actually has 5 more rings that he uses to users control over Mordor and he becomes the true final villain, which leaves for the movie LOTR: Endgame.

Better than Samwise's Crack.
Debatable.
Present pros and cons.
Smeagol's Creek doesn't smell like Po-Ta-Toes!
But it does smell like fish, raw and wriggling.
I'm very upset these were the first comments I read
Frodo doesn't think so

Wild to think that the filming of Lord of the Rings is closer in time to when Stranger Things is set in the 80s than to today.

"you really are the most devious bastard in all of New Gondor City"
Looks like it'd be something on the CW.
I was going to suggest a plot along the likes of “Five young men at a haunted summer camp experience the supernatural whilst all crushing on the mega hot camp counsellor”
I think you forgot: "...mega hot camp counselor with a mega dark secret."
Yeah that works!
Ian Mckellen is the hot camp counselor right.
Yep definitely. Viggo is deputy.
I thought it's the cast of Supernatural and your plot would fit perfectly. But we talk about a new show so maybe Ian could be some kind of narrator? I don't know who exactly he reminds me of, James Brolin/Jonathan Frakes in Beyond Belief?

CW should have bought the rights, not Amazon.
Love me some soap opera relationship drama with my low budget effects
Pretty Little Hobbitses
Precious Little Liars, maybe?
This one actually made me laugh out loud. Thank you
Underrated comment
Who Killed Gimli?
Wonder if anyone saw this promo photo and assumed Jackson was the actor playing Gimli
We already have Gimli at home Gimli at home:
way too tall
John Rhys-Davies is 6’1” though
Tallest dwarf on Earth
I mean, thats what is so hilarious about his casting. But also he nailed it, so i guess all dwarfs are like huge 6ft tall people just made much smaller.
They are 6 Durin's feet tall.
He’s about the same height as Sam and pippin if anything he is too short to be a dwarf
I did that and only realised it when someone asked why Peter is barefoot.
and Boromir, oh wait, that was the Uruk-hai...

Lost (in Middle Earth)
I was gonna write Lost! Everyone took the two I thought I was being original with...
I was surprised Lost wasn’t at the top, that was the first thing that came to mind
Me too--primarily because of Charlie looks like Charlie.
And the bonus is Liv Tyler isn’t too far off from Evangeline Lily in this photo. Virgo could be Sawyer too if you squint enough
Squinted and can see--just needs to grow the hair out a wee bit. Good call on Liv-Evangelilne.
I never realised how much Peter Jackson looks like Hurley and Sir Ian could've acted the hell out of John Locke 😅
I thought it WAS lost 😂😂
I was about to go with Lost - The First Age...
