Netflix has formally renewed The Witcher for a fifth season.
The information was confirmed by casting director Sophie Holland, who can be engaged on the likes of The Continental, Heads Of State and the Beetlejuice sequel. She revealed to Selection, “We’re nearly to start out filming on season 4 with Liam Hemsworth and there will probably be a brief hole then we go straight into season 5.”
The upcoming third season of The Witcher, which makes it half one premiere this June, will probably be Henry Cavill‘s final experience as Geralt of Rivia earlier than he’s changed by Liam Hemsworth. When requested if she was “shocked” about Cavill’s departure from the position, Holland answered, “I in all probability received’t touch upon that one. I’d like to, however I received’t.” She added, “I actually stay up for seeing what Liam brings. He has a giant fan base. Season 4 will probably be a pleasant combine of recent characters and returning faces.”
Cavill’s exit from the collection and Hemsworth’s substitute had been each introduced in late 2022, though the previous didn’t give a cause for his departure. “My journey as Geralt of Rivia has been full of each monsters and adventures, and alas, I will probably be laying down my medallion and my swords for Season 4,” Cavill wrote on Instagram. “In my stead, the unbelievable Mr Liam Hemsworth will probably be taking on the mantle of the White Wolf. As with the best of literary characters, I cross the torch with reverence for the time spent embodying Geralt and enthusiasm to see Liam’s tackle this most fascinating and nuanced of males. Liam, good sir, this character has such an exquisite depth to him, get pleasure from diving in and seeing what you could find.”
The Witcher season three, half one premieres June 29 on Netflix.
