Abstract

This research analyzes the novel's cinematic version's characters, conflict, and settings. In this research, two separate works are examined and contrasted. The first is a literary work by J.R.R. Tolkien, a novel published in 1955 under the title The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King. The second is a cinematic adaptation made by Peter Jackson in 2003 under the same title. By comparing the two works, Linda Hutcheon's theory of adaptation is used to support this research. Qualitative analysis and library research are used as research methods in this study. The writer argues that the personalities of the five major characters in the movie are different from those portrayed in the novel, such as the characters being weakened and more anxious. The conflict in the adaptation is distinct from the one in the book, in which some conflicts have been excluded. The audience’s imagination was visualized and adapted to the settings. Jackson also could make the characters more human in the epic scene, emphasizing friendship, solidarity and war.
