You can watch the entire hour-long The Lord of The Rings reunion below.

Sean Bean in a medieval drama series? What will they think of next!
The Game of Thrones actor has found a new scheming medieval family to navigate, except the twist is not that he’s going to die (though that may very well happen) but that Bean is playing the descendent of a character played by his Game of Thrones son, Richard Madden.
