New photos from The Witcher set show Yennefer, Tissaia, Vilgefortz, Stregobor, Cahir and more

Filming for the second season of The Witcher is still ongoing within the medieval ruins of Fountains Abbey in Yorkshire and thanks to an avid local photographer we have a big late-night surprise!

The following pictures were taken by Peter Lau and show several of the show’s most prominent mages walking alongside each other on the grounds in their costumes.

Stregobor (Lars Mikkelsen), Tissaia (MyAnna Buring) and Vilgefortz (Mahesh Jadu)
Vilgefortz and Stregobor
Cahir (Eamon Farren), Yennefer (Anya Chalotra), Sabrina (Therica Wilson-Read) and a currently unknown mage

The last photo is especially interesting as it shows Eamon Farren‘s Vicovarian knight Cahir sporting a big beard. Two more details stand out a first glance: Cahir appears to be shirtless underneath his jacket and he’s still wearing the trousers and boots, we came to know as part of season one’s controversial Nilfgaardian armor attire.

From that and the rugged look it’s not a huge stretch to infer that Cahir will probably be taken prisoner in the aftermath of the Battle of Sodden. It is clear now, that we’ll be seeing today’s scenes in an earlier episode than the sequence captured at Fountains Abbey last week, which featured a beardless Cahir, clad in new armor.

These are very interesting pictures and give us a lot more to speculate. What exactly are the mages doing there and what will be Cahir’s part in the gathering? Will they interact with Shaun Dooley’s King Foltest and possibly other monarchs also set to film for The Witcher? Who is the new mage that we haven’t identified yet? Leave your theories in the comments below or on our twitter.

An unexpected character is returning to The Witcher Season 2

Image
It’s been a busy week for Netflix’s The Witcher . We reported about a curious action scene being filmed at Kaer Morhen involving Henry Cavill’s Geralt, Freya Allan’s Ciri along with many new witchers and we followed that up with a report about a number of female characters involved in that storyline as well. Today we have something that surprised us a fair bit. Redanian Intelligence has learned that Danica , played by Imogen Daines , will return to the second season of The Witcher and will appear in one of its first episodes directed by Stephen Surjik. To remind you, Danica is the sex worker who Geralt is with in the beginning of the third episode of the first season and she’s examining the monster slayer’s scars. Imogen Daines as Danica with Henry Cavill as Geralt in The Witcher S01E03 The return of such a minor character is quite unexpected and it’s unclear how Danica would fit in any of the storylines of Season 2. To put the timeline into context, the scene we saw in the ser...

Henry Cavill Injury Doesn't Affect Production

Image
By now you've likely heard that Henry Cavill has injured himself during a shoot for The WItcher. United Kingdom media giant The Sun , reported the news first on Cavill's injury. A source close to the show had this to say regarding the injury, "He just suddenly pulled up and was clearly in a lot of pain. It wasn’t clear if an object had hit his leg or it was some sort of hamstring or muscle injury." This took place while Henry was suspended 20 feet in the air for a major scene. While the title of The Sun's article alludes to the production schedule going into chaos, Deadline.com has now also shared the news but notes that any impact to production is not heavily felt due to the coming holiday shut down. It would seem if Cavill had to sustain any injury, this is a perfect time for the show to absorb it. What do you think of the injury news? Let us know in the comments below or in our forum !

The Witcher Season 3 to enter production in early 2022

Image
Everyone is eagerly waiting for The Witcher Season 2 on December 17, but the work on the next season doesn’t stay still and the scripts are being written as we speak. If you recall, Season 3 of The Witcher will have a number of new writers who started their work this July. We were wondering when filming for the next season would begin and now we have a window. Thanks to the newest listing on Production Weekly, we now know that Season 3 of The Witcher is planned to enter production in the first quarter of 2022 . But bear in mind that production schedules are never solid and are always subject to change, especially in a post-covid world. Nevertheless, at least now we approximately know the production window and when Netflix wants to get things underway. Contact info blacked out for privacy reasons . Also disregard the locations and directors. That is old info. Season 3 will also have a significant change: instead of Arborfield Studios, production will move to Longcross Studios, w...
