The Witcher to show young Geralt and young Vesemir in Season 2

With only two days left until the second season of Netflix’s The Witcher finally wraps production for good, there is still much to be discovered. As they said in Dark, what we know is a drop, what we don’t know is an ocean. But this time we do know something curious.

We have learned that somewhere in Season 2 of The Witcher there will be a flashback scene featuring young Geralt and young Vesemir. We’ve already seen young Geralt played by Tristan Ruggeri in Season 1, but this time we believe it’s very likely Geralt will be several years older than that, hence why Netflix has been looking for a new actor for the role.

As for Vesemir, we don’t know who is cast, but we do know that singer and actor Bradley Jaden auditioned for the role, which reveals to us approximately what age of Vesemir we will see.

Will whoever is cast as young Vesemir in Season 2 also voice him in The Witcher: Nightmare of the Wolf?

Difficult to say at this point, as we know nearly nothing about the current status of the anime film. We know it was in development since 2019, but we can’t say much about how much voiceover they have at the moment and whether this was a “2 in 1 audition” at all.

That being said, Jaden is a proficient singer which means he has great control of his voice and would be efficient in doing voiceover work as well. But that’s not enough evidence to suggest anything.

There is also the Theo James question.

If you recall, he voiced young Vesemir in Season 1 and since Nightmare of the Wolf started development even before Season 1 was released, many assumed he recorded that one line along with many other lines he may have been doing at the time for the anime. James having done a decent amount of voiceover work for Netflix in the recent years may add some weight to that speculation.

Theo James

In any case, we have no information on James’ involvement either in The Witcher Season 2 or Nightmare of the Wolf and we will have to wait and see who plays and voices the young Vesemirs in either production. Will there be one for both productions? Will there be two different young Vesemirs?

The Witcher Season 2 is close to wrapping production and Nightmare of the Wolf was rumoured to air not too far from Season 2, which will be released in the second half of 2021.

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...
