The WitcherProducers Planning To Finally Make The Shift
During an interview, executive producer Tomek Baginski shed light on the upcoming approach to address the recasting of Geralt of Rivia afterHenry Cavill’sexit. He hinted that viewers can expect a fresh face portraying the iconic character when the show returns.
“We have a very, very good plan to introduce our new Geralt and our new vision for Geralt with Liam. Not going deeply into those ideas because this will be a huge spoiler, [but] it’s also very, very close to the meta ideas which are deeply embedded in the books, especially in book five,”he said.“It’s very lore accurate. It’s very close to what was set out in the books and I think this change will be quite flawless. But at the same time it will be a new Geralt, it will be a new face for this character and I think it will also be very, very exciting to see.”

Baginski’s intriguing remark about the meta ideas, particularly in book five, has sparked curiosity. While the books do not depict Geralt undergoing a physical transformation with a completely new body and face, these comments may allude to a profound evolution in Geralt’s character. It suggests that Geralt will undergo significant personal growth, distancing himself from his witcher origins and dedicating himself entirely to the quest of finding Ciri.

The Story Will Revolve Around Ciri Moving Forward
However, despite the anticipated changes surrounding Geralt,The Witcherproducers have emphasized that Ciri will now take center stage, a narrative shift that closely aligns with events in the novels.
“Time of Contempt is a really good book, some people say it’s the best book of the saga and it’s very rich in the story. I think this was very exciting to do, but especially for Freya.”Baginski explained.“This is also the book where Ciri –let’s be blunt about this– becomes the main character of the saga, because this is how it was done in the books, and watching Ciri evolve, and watching Freya evolve as an actress in this season, was incredible, just incredible.”

Producer Steve Gaub asserted that Ciri was fully aware of the impending shift and recognized that the moment had arrived for her to step confidently into the spotlight.
