The prequel ‘The Witcher: Blood Origin’ is getting underway at Netflix. Here’s what to know about the series casting news, teaser-trailers and a release date.
Meet your new favorite elf. When The Witcher first landed on Netflix at the end of 2018, the series was an instant sensation. Based on a mixture of the short stories and novels by Andrzej Sapkowski with a heavy dose of the video game based on the same, the Henry Cavill-led series took the fandom by storm. But, much like Bridgerton that followed, Netflix realized one new season every two years wasn’t going to be enough. Enter The Witcher: Blood Origins, a prequel series set in the same universe hundreds of years prior. The latest The Witcher: Blood Origin casting news promises an epic spinoff that’s just as talent-heavy as the original. The Witcher: Blood Origins is one of three Witcher stories currently on its way to Netflix. The first, The Witcher Season 2, is the continuation of the Cavill series, which recently wrapped filming and is expected to arrive before the end of 2021.
