The Witcher family is back together again! But they have a huge challenge ahead of them. As the threats in the world intensify and Ciri’s power grow, Geralt will have plenty of new obstacles in his path that will make slaying a Kikimora look like a walk in the park. The third season of The Witcher has officially entered production which means we could be bombarded with some incredibly exciting news as filming commences.
Just yesterday, we received our first wave of news. The Witcher cast has grown and some incredibly familiar faces have joined Geralt’s world. Without further ado, say hello to the new members of The Witcher family…
- Gallatin – Robbie Amell (Upload, Code 8, Resident Evil: Welcome to Raccoon City)
Character description: A born fighter, Gallatin leads an army of guerrilla Scoia’tael fighting on behalf of Nilfgaard. Unafraid to speak his truth, Gallatin’s loyalty to his people ultimately leads him on a collision course with Francesca over power.
- Milva – Meng’er Zhang (Shang-Chi and The Legend of The Ten Rings)
Character description: A human adopted by the dryads of Brokilon Forest, Milva is a fierce and talented huntress. Exact archery skills coupled with a stone-cold aptitude for survival make her a formidable adversary in the unforgiving Continent – those that cross her, do so at their peril.
- Prince Radovid – Hugh Skinner (Mamma Mia Here We Go Again!, Falling For Figaro, Fleabag)
Character description: Royal playboy and younger brother to King Vizimir, Radovid finds himself suddenly a man on the inside of the Redanian Intelligence. With his good looks and often drunken charm, Radovid surprises with how incisive he can be in matters of politics, but it’s all games until someone gets hurt.
- Mistle – Christelle Elwin (Half Bad, Bloods)
Character description: Mistle is a member of The Rats, a gang of misfit teenagers who steal from the rich and give to themselves – and sometimes the poor. She is street hard, suspicious of everyone and out for revenge, until a chance meeting that will change everything.
We have a lot to look forward to this season, and considering how season two ended it appears as though things won’t be getting any easier for Geralt, Ciri, and Yennefer. Based on the new synopsis from Netflix, the Wild Hunt isn’t the only thing Geralt has to worry about.
Check out what awaits Geralt in Season Three:
As monarchs, mages, and beasts of the Continent compete to capture her, Geralt takes Ciri of Cintra into hiding, determined to protect his newly-reunited family against those who threaten to destroy it. Entrusted with Ciri’s magical training, 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. They must fight back, put everything on the line — or risk losing each other forever.
The Witcher stars Henry Cavill (Geralt of Rivia), Anya Chalotra (Yennefer of Vengerberg), Freya Allan (Ciri), and Joey Batey (Jaskier). With this news, we have once again entered our Witcher phase. So, it seems appropriate to stick The Witcher on from the beginning and enjoy the endless stream of blood, “hmm”s, and terrifying monsters. Care to join us? What are you waiting for? Season One and Two of The Witcher are available to stream right now.
