Samsung announced Wednesday that it is collaborating with Prime Video to exclusively bring fans of Samsung 8K TVs content from the upcoming series The Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power in 8K resolution.

Prior to the September 1 series premiere on Prime Video, Samsung and Amazon are giving fans exclusive early access to excerpted content from the series.

On Wednesday, the South Korean electronics manufacturer hosted an exclusive sneak peek screening event on its three-story LED video wall in its Samsung 837 showroom, where 25 minutes of highlights from the series’ first two episodes were shown.

Furthermore, “starting this week, dynamic creative from the series will debut on Samsung’s landmark LED digital screens overlooking New York City’s Times Square, London’s Piccadilly Circus, and Milan’s Piazza del Duomo,” Samsung said.

To demonstrate the visual benefits of 8K video on big screens, Samsung said it is giving viewers an opportunity to see sequences of the original series in greater depth and detail on Samsung Neo QLED 8K TVs and “The Wall” 8K Micro LED displays.
