It looks like Hollywood never runs out of bad ideas, and the latest one is bigger than ever: Stephen Colbert, the infamous late-night leftist, is being let loose on the Lord of the Rings franchise. That’s right—after years of preaching partisan nonsense and shoving woke politics down everyone’s throat on CBS, Colbert is swapping his studio desk for Middle Earth. Warner Bros. and New Line Cinema apparently think America is just itching to see Tolkien’s classic stories twisted by a man whose main job has been sneering at conservatives every night.
Instead of bringing in someone with a real love for the spirit of Tolkien’s work, they picked a virtue-signaling celebrity whose entire brand is mocking the values this country is built on. Colbert’s idea of heroism seems to be lecturing his audience about climate change or whatever the latest progressive buzzword is—now he’ll get to bake that same tired agenda into the heart of a beloved saga. If you thought the Lord of the Rings was about courage, faith, and the fight against evil, buckle up. These Hollywood elites are about to turn it into yet another vehicle for liberal programming.
Hollywood has made it clear that they think conservatives have no place in the culture. They don’t want to entertain, they want to indoctrinate. Bringing in someone like Colbert, who has spent his career attacking traditional values, only guarantees that this new Lord of the Rings film will be soaked in the smug, out-of-touch politics that have been driving American audiences away for years. The globalist crowd in Tinseltown doesn’t care about the story—they’re more interested in pushing the same anti-American messages we see everywhere else.
It’s almost funny, if it weren’t so sad. Colbert is a laughingstock outside the liberal bubble, yet Hollywood still hails him as a creative genius. Maybe they forgot that the fans who made Lord of the Rings a cultural phenomenon aren’t clamoring for another hour of eye-rolling lectures and anti-family propaganda. The woke disaster of other reboots should have been enough warning. But this is Hollywood in 2026: all ideology, no imagination.
Why let a man who mocks half of America put his fingerprints on one of the most beloved stories ever told? Is this what we want for the future of entertainment—an endless parade of partisan hacks dressing up their agenda as pop culture? Maybe the real fantasy is that anyone in Hollywood actually cares what everyday Americans want to see.
