Peter Jackson's three-film adaptation of J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings, produced by New Line Cinema and filmed back-to-back in New Zealand between 1999 and 2000. Released annually from 2001 to 2003, the trilogy won seventeen Academy Awards across its three entries, including Best Picture for The Return of the King.
Frodo Baggins inherits the One Ring and embarks on a quest to destroy it in the fires of Mount Doom, accompanied by the Fellowship of nine companions drawn from the free peoples of Middle-earth.
The Fellowship splits. Frodo and Sam journey toward Mordor with Gollum as their guide, while Aragorn, Legolas, and Gimli ally with the kingdom of Rohan against the forces of Saruman at Helm's Deep.
All storylines reach their climax as Frodo and Sam approach Mount Doom and Sauron's armies besiege Minas Tirith. Winner of eleven Academy Awards, including Best Picture — the most by any fantasy film.
