The Witcher:
“The Witcher” is a fantasy drama television series created by Lauren Schmidt Hissrich for Netflix. It is based on the book series by Polish author Andrzej Sapkowski.
Set on a fictional, medieval-inspired landmass known as “the Continent”, The Witcher explores the legend of Geralt of Rivia, Yennefer of Vengerberg and Princess Ciri. It stars Henry Cavill, Anya Chalotra, and Freya Allan.
The first season, consisting of eight episodes, was released on Netflix on December 20, 2019.
It was based on “The Last Wish” and “Sword of Destiny”, which are collections of short stories that precede the main The Witcher saga.
The second season, also consisting of eight episodes and based on the novel Blood of Elves, was released on December 17, 2021.
In September 2021, Netflix renewed the series for a third season, which also consists of eight episodes, released in two volumes on June 29 and July 27, 2023. This will be followed by a fourth season, with Liam Hemsworth taking over the role of Geralt of Rivia.
In April 2024, the series was renewed for its fifth and final season.
An animated origin story film, Nightmare of the Wolf, was released on August 23, 2021. A prequel miniseries, “Blood Origin”, was released on December 25, 2022. A second film, “Sirens of the Deep”, is expected to be released in February 2025.
The Storyline:
The story begins with Geralt of Rivia, Crown Princess Cirilla of Cintra, and the quarter-elf sorceress Yennefer of Vengerberg at different points in time, exploring formative events that shape their characters throughout the first season, before eventually merging into a single timeline.
Geralt and Ciri are linked by destiny since before she was born when he unknowingly demanded her as a reward for his services by invoking "the Law of Surprise". After the two finally meet, Geralt becomes the princess's protector and must help her and fight against her various pursuers to prevent her Elder Blood and powerful magic from being used for malevolent purposes and keep Ciri and their world safe.
