Ahead of Season 2’s release, Netflix has renewed fantasy drama ‘The Witcher’ for Season 3, as well as an animated film and a kid-friendly series.
Streaming Toss a coin in celebration, because more of The Witcher is coming to Netflix. Season 2 of The Witcher, Netflix’s fantasy drama based on the book series of the same name by Polish writer Andrzej Sapkowski, isn’t set to premiere on the platform until Dec.17,2021. But considering Season 1 of the series was reportedly viewed by over 76 million people within its first month of release, it shouldn’t surprise fans to learn that The Witcher has already been renewed for Season 3 by Netflix. The streaming service announced the news and other forthcoming The Witcher content at its virtual fan event TUDUM on Sept.25. Henry Cavill ( Man of Steel) leads the series as Geralt of Rivia, a magical monster-hunter known as a Witcher, and Season 1 largely focused on his quest to find Ciri (Freya Allan), the crown princess of Cintra, as the two were linked by destiny prior to her birth. The Witcher lays out the backstories of Geralt, Ciri, and quarter-elf sorceress Yennefer of Vengerberg (Anya Chalotra) on different timelines before merging into a linear storyline that follows the trio to the battle of Sodden Hill against their enemies from Nilfgaard. The immense popularity of Season 1 led Netflix not only to renew the series for Season 2 but produce an animated spinoff film titled The Witcher: Nightmare of the Wolf, which premiered on Aug.23,2021, and told the origin story of Vesemir (Theo James), aka Geralt’s mentor and fellow Witcher.
