I'd take issue with the claim that LotR has the Sun coexisting with the Trees; for example on the basis that Gildor's party's song has a reference to Varda's creation of the Stars in "the Sunless year". Unless you can give a reference that establishes otherwise, there seems no reason to suppose that the cosmology of LotR, as presented in the book and the book only, is any different to that of the published Silmarillion.
Nonetheless LotR doesn't include any explicit references to the myth of the Sun and Moon, so far more interesting to me is the fact that the trailer references it. That's information the show is not supposed to have, and must surely be a knowing wink for us to pick up on.
