Netflix and showrunner / executive producer Lauren Schmidt Hissrich's killer adaptation of THE WITCHER starring Henry Cavill is the third most in-demand original streaming series in the US only behind STRANGER THINGS and Jon Favreau's STAR WARS series THE MANDALORIAN.
And today we have word from Cavill himself that season 2 will begin pre-production soon. The MAN OF STEEL and JUSTICE LEAGUE actor dropped the update over on Instagram and you can check out his post below.
Developed for Netflix by showrunner/executive producer Lauren Schmidt Hissrich, THE WITCHER is
an epic tale of fate and family. Geralt of Rivia, a solitary monster hunter, struggles to find his place in a world where people often prove more wicked than beasts. But when destiny hurtles him toward a powerful sorceress, and a young princess with a dangerous secret, the three must learn to navigate the increasingly volatile Continent together.
Netflix has already renewed the series for an eight-episode second season. Cavill will return as protagonist Geralt of Rivia, with Anya Chalotra returning as Yennefer along with Freya Allan as Ciri. Schmidt Hissrich will also return as executive producer on Season 2 along with Tomek Baginski, Jason F. Brown, Sean Daniel, Mike Ostrowski, Steve Gaub, and Jaroslaw Sawko. The second season will begin production in London early in 2020, for a planned debut in 2021. Season one is now streaming on Netflix. READ OUR REVIEW HERE.
