He took ot Instagram to let us all know: “England returns to Lockdown on Thursday so it is time for me to depart Yorkshire and The extraordinary North, and head back down South to continue shooting in the studio. Thank you for hosting all of us on season 2 of The Witcher. Hopefully, I shall return to your hills, dales, and fells soon. Stay strong and stay safe, my friends.”
Stay tuned for more season news as we hear it.
Here’s the new synopsis: “Convinced Yennefer’s life was lost at the Battle of Sodden, Geralt of Rivia brings Princess Cirilla to the safest place he knows, his childhood home of Kaer Morhen. While the Continent’s kings, elves, humans and demons strive for supremacy outside its walls, he must protect the girl from something far more dangerous: the mysterious power she possesses inside.”
In the meantime, remember that The Witcher is set on a fictional, medieval-inspired land known as “the Continent”, it explores the legend of Geralt of Rivia and princess Ciri, who are linked by destiny to each other. The show initially follows the three main protagonists at different points of time, exploring formative events that shaped their characters, before eventually merging into a single timeline.
Produced by Lauren Schmidt Hissrichbased on the book series of the same name by Polish writer Andrzej Sapkowski, the first season sports a 67% approval rating over on Rotten Tomatoes with a Critics Consensus that reads: Though the world of The Witcher at times feels only half-formed, Henry Cavill brings brawny charisma to a series teeming with subversive fantasy elements and dark humor.
