With season 3 of Netflix’s The Witcher adaptation now officially in production, the streaming service is beginning to loosen its lips about what’s in store, and that includes casting news for four characters being introduced as part of the series’ third outing.
Netflix confirmed filming on season 3 was officially underway earlier this month, sharing a behind-the-scenes shot of the show’s Geralt, Yennefer, and Ciri (that is, Henry Cavill, Anya Chalotra, and Freya Allan) on-set and in the snow. It also offered a brief summary of where things will be heading following the conclusion of last season, revealing that it’ll see Geralt taking Ciri of Cintra into hiding.
“Entrusted with Ciri’s magical training,” the streaming service explained, “Yennefer leads them to the protected fortress of Aretuza, where she hopes to discover more about the girl’s untapped powers; instead, they discover they’ve landed in a battlefield of political corruption, dark magic, and treachery.”
