The movies added women to Tolkein's world. The show makes them characters.
Jackson’s films, which he co-wrote with Fran Walsh and Phillipa Boyens, made various changes to incorporate more women into Tolkien’s tales. Some are innocuous, like in, when it is Arwen who rescues Frodo from Ringwraiths instead of an elf named Glorfindel. Others are embarrassing, like the newly added character Tauriel in thetrilogy.
Then there’s Eowyn, created by Tolkien in response to a request from his daughter, and easily the most complex female character in the trilogy, both on page and on screen. But when you compare the films to Tolkien’s text, it’s the former that have aged less well, creating the sense of a more toxic patriarchal society than the author perhaps intended.
