Lord Of The Rings Reboot Can Fix The Worst Part Of The Movies

In The Lord of the Rings books, Arwen and Eowyn are barely characters as Tolkien treats them more like symbols. Arwen, the Evenstar of her people, is depicted primarily through her connection to Aragorn and her symbolic role as a representation of hope and love. Meanwhile, Eowyn, the Shieldmaiden of Rohan, is portrayed as a courageous warrior seeking to break free from the constraints of societal expectations. However, in Peter Jackson’s film adaptations, both Arwen and Eowyn are granted expanded narratives and agency, becoming more than symbols but pivotal players in the struggle against Sauron.
