'The Lord of the Rings' is criticized for showing the 'dwarfs' without beards

The first glimpse of the series ‘The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power’ has raised some mixed emotions among fans, who pointed out that the concept of ‘dwarves’ from Tolkien’s work has not been respected.

In the British writer’s books, the ‘dwarfs’ are represented with a beard, a characteristic that the creators of the series would have preferred to discard by showing the queen ‘Disa’, played by Sophia Nomvete, without any facial hair.

Many fans of the iconic book series were frustrated with the character’s design and online have quoted the original words of author JRR Tolkien, who noted that the women of this magical race wore beards just like their male counterparts.

“I would never get mad if a TV or movie version of a book changed a character’s ethnicity or gender, but I’m really upset that the new LOTR show is giving us midget women without beards. Dwarf women are supposed to have big beautiful beards!” one netizen commented on Twitter.

Apparently, the new adaptation of ‘The Lord of the Rings’ is taking several creative liberties unlike the saga directed by Peter Jackson, in which they also allude to the curious characteristic of these inhabitants of ‘Middle Earth’.

“It is true that you do not see many dwarf women. And, in fact, they are so similar in voice and appearance that they are often mistaken for dwarf men”, commented ‘Gimli’ in ‘The Two Towers’.

Some fans even pointed out their disagreement when criticizing the Afro-Latin actor Ismael Cruz Córdova for playing a Silvan elf named ‘Arondir’ since in the work these beings are described as having white skin.

However, this statement has been defended by several netizens, who consider that including diversity in the cast enriches the world created by the writer more than 50 years ago.

The series will debut on Amazon Prime Video on September 2 and, according to Vanity Fair reports, it will not be based on Tolkien’s novel as such, but will focus on the wide world that he described in the Appendices that accompany the trilogy of ‘El Lord of the Rings’.
