The show will be executive produced by Sean Daniel (The Mummy franchise) and Jason Brown (The Expanse). The Oscar nominated visual effects studio Platige Image S.A. is doing the show, but the official release doesn’t specifically state if it’s CG animated or live-action—or a mix of the two. No stills have been release yet, either.

CDPR , maker of the game, is not involved with the project though. but i hope the series will be good enough. The games were wonderful, especially Witcher 3.

The Witcher Casting Reveals Who is Playing Ciri, Yen & More

Netflix has revealed who will be joining Henry Cavill in the upcoming adaptation series of The Witcher, including who will be playing Ciri, the Princess of Cintra, and the enigmatic sorceress Yennefer.

Joining Cavill’s Geralt of Rivia are 17-year-old Freya Allan as Ciri, Anya Chalotra as Yennefer, Jodhi May as Queen Calanthe, Mimi Ndiweni as fledgling sorceress Fringilla, Sabrina as Therica Wilson-Read, Millie Brady as outcast Princess Renfri, Adam Levy as the druid Mousesack, Björn Hlynur Haraldsson as Queen Calanthe’s husband, the knight Eist, and MyAnna Buring as Tissaia, head of the magical academy.

Based on the best-selling fantasy series, 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.

The Witcher series for Netflix will be based on the stories and novels by Andrzej Sapkowski, of which there are eight, which themselves formulated the popular Witcher games franchise which has since spawned a comic book series and a tabletop game. The book series was previously adapted for television in Poland.

Schmidt Hissrich will serve as executive producer and showrunner for The Witcher. She’s known for her work (writing and co-executive producing) on The Defenders, Daredevil, and Power.

Netflix is aiming to release the first season sometime in 2020. The series will be eight episodes long and will be shooting in Eastern Europe.

I have to say, the backview is really faithful to the look in the game. Kulang lang ng isa pang sword!

‘The Witcher’ Showrunner Says Netflix Series Will Never Adapt the Video Games

Netflix’s “The Witcher” is best known in the U.S. for the series of role playing video games by CD Projekt Red rather than the fantasy novels by Polish writer Andrzej Sapkowski that inspired the games. But if the show ever moves past the story laid out in the books like “Game of Thrones” did, Showrunner Lauren Schmidt Hissrich says fans should definitely not expect it to mine the games for material.

“Extreme long vision is no, we will not start adapting the games,” Hissrich told TheWrap during a press round table at San Diego Comic-Con 2019. “I can only attack one season at a time, I’m so excited for this one, the rest kind of makes my mind explode right now. If someone says ‘what happens in Season 7,’ sure I have thoughts. Fingers crossed, we get there.”

The games, in case you’re not familiar, are a trilogy of stories that serves as a sequel to the books, picking up where they end and continuing the story of Geralt of Rivia, a famed monster hunter who keeps getting caught up in lots of major world events. So Hissrich is saying that regardless of whether “The Witcher” ever makes it past the stories told in the books, they won’t use the games as source material for further stories.

Netflix’s The Witcher Has Seven Seasons Planned, Says Showrunner

We’re still just over a month away from the highly-anticipated debut of Netflix’s adaptation of the acclaimed fantasy novel series The Witcher, but showrunner Lauren Schmidt Hissrich has no intention of letting the series run to ground anytime soon. She has revealed a full seven seasons are mapped out for the Henry Cavill-led series.

In an interview with SFX Magazine, Hissrich revealed that despite no early renewal announcement or extensions for the series from the streaming service, she has plotted out a full seven seasons for where the series should go following this December’s debut.

“Right now it’s just about, ‘how do you set up stories that really capture audiences for years at a time?'” Hissrich said. “The worst thing we could do is put all of our energies just into season one, and not be thinking about where these characters can grow to. I can’t promise you that they’re very much alive.”
