Expected to start in the summer of 2023, The Witcher season 4 is finally coming to Netflix. And the fantasy series will be transformed, with a new performer for the role of the wizard Geralt of Rivia. After the departure of Henry Cavill, it is now Liam Hemsworth who will transfer his qualities to the main character of the program.
How did Liam Hemsworth get cast as Geralt?
in the given interview IGNShowrunner Lauren Schmidt Hisrich returned to this selection: “We needed someone who we envisioned would stand out in these action scenes, who would have a physical presence that would both be terrifying in the story. But Geralt also has a very emotional side… What I really liked about Liam’s work is that he was able to combine those two aspects in a very natural way.”
Also the interview of our colleagues, Liam Hemsworth recalls “shock” felt when his agent asked him to play the role vacant by Henry Cavill. A huge fan of video games, he quickly convinced the showrunner and happily began reading the novels and watching previous seasons.
The Australian actor knows that it will not be easy, if not impossible, to forget his predecessor. Still, she can count on the support of her co-stars Anna Chalotra and Freya Allan, who return to play the roles of Yennefer and Ciri. This fourth season is described by Netflix as a new beginning and the start of new adventures for the trio of heroes.
What are the main issues of season 4?
By the end of Season 3, the three characters were actually – again – separated. Therefore, their reunion will be the common theme of the next two seasons (filming of the fifth and final season has already begun). But each of them will also face their own obstacles and have to face a horde of deadly new enemies.
New allies will also appear, including a vampire named Emiel Regis Rohellec Terzieff-Godefroy, more simply called Regis. The latter will be portrayed by Laurence Fishburne, who is new to the casting of the series. “For example, Regis provides a real moral and ethical compass and pushes Geralt to put himself in a lot of trouble.” Loren Schmidt Hisrich describes it.
Season 4 of The Witcher can be seen on October 30 on Netflix. As for the fifth, it will be released from 2026. And Liam Hemsworth promises fans: this last season “It offers a very good conclusion. And gives a real sense of achievement.”
