Part 2/9:
In the cinematic retelling, Gandalf and Saruman share very few moments onscreen. Their interactions consist mainly of a brief conversation resulting in Gandalf's confinement in Orthanc, a quick exchange at the pinnacle of that same tower before Gandalf escapes on an eagle, and a final short encounter during “The Return of the King” after Isengard has been overrun by the Ents.
