Wind’s howling.
Netflix has released a « first clip » of Liam Hemsworth as Geralt of Rivia in The Witcher Season Four, as distinct from the « first look » we got back in May. This is our first actual scene from the season and not a little teaser, though, with Hemsworth sporting the white locks and leather armor of everyone’s favorite mutant monster slayer.
The clip shows Geralt, an elf, and a dwarf squaring off with a wraith in a dark forest. Dialogue-wise, we just get a little of that Witcher pre-fight monster explaining, the sort of thing Geralt would mutter while looking at clues, but Hemsworth hits the right notes with a similar growl to original Geralt actor Henry Cavill.
The choreography of the fight is also physical and legible in a way I dig: Not so many cuts that you can’t tell what the hell’s going on, and some actually interesting flow to it.
