The Witcher season 2 will finally resume filming this summer, Netflix confirms
The Witcher season 2 will resume filming this August, Netflix has confirmed in a tweet. The fantasy drama has been on-hold since March, when new cast member Kristofer Hivju contracted coronavirus and the production of the series shut down. Shortly after, the entire live-action TV and film industry essentially went into shutdown, save for a lucky few series that finished filming before the global pandemic kicked into high gear (The Mandalorian season 2 and The Umbrella Academy season 2, for example).

A Fan Favorite ‘Game Of Thrones’ Star May Be Joining ‘The Witcher’ In Season 2
The Witcher is the next big thing in fantasy shows now that Game Of Thrones is over. Indeed, many dubious comparisons between the two wildly different programs have been made in the wake of The Witcher’s release. The two shows are almost nothing like one another beyond sharing a place in the fantasy genre.

'The Witcher' Deconstructed Timeline
The Witcher has received a lot of adulation recently. According to Business Insider, The Witcher is now the most popular show in the world—even unseating The Mandalorian from Disney Plus. Of course, because Netflix has released the entire first season, many fans are already on their second or third viewing. We certainly have seen it many times. The show covers three narratives. Yennefer's story covers over eighty years, Geralt's over thirty, and Ciri's only two weeks! That said, every event leads toward the season's final outcome—Geralt and Ciri meeting.

Analysts Say Netflix’s ‘The Witcher’ Was The Third Biggest Streaming Original In Its US Debut
It can be extremely hard to measure the success of streaming shows in this day and age with so much information kept under wraps by these black box companies who only share data when it suits them. So we have to rely on other metrics, like the fact that The Witcher is one of the highest rated Netflix originals on IMDB, alongside other hits that have gone on to last multiple seasons. Or from analysis by external companies.

‘The Witcher’ Is Officially Netflix’s Highest Rated Original Series On IMDB
I have to admit it – I didn’t see this coming. While I did think The Witcher looked considerably good from early trailers, I didn’t imagine we would end up seeing fans rally around it truly like this. While Netflix’s The Witcher series is based on the original books, it has also been embraced by legions of fans of the video games. The result?

Netflix’s The Witcher is a dark, funny, and faithful adaptation of the fantasy series
You learn nearly everything you need to know about The Witcher hero Geralt (Henry Cavill) a few minutes into the first episode. The titular witcher — a work-for-hire monster hunter with some helpful superpowers — is first seen in a swamp, nearly killed by a giant spider monster, beaten and almost drowned. In the next scene, Geralt heads to a local pub for information on his next quest, only to be subjected to ridicule and scorn from villagers who are scared of his supernatural nature. Ultimately, he’s saved from a barroom brawl thanks to a helpful young woman, who very quickly becomes a romantic partner.

You can relax: Netflix's Witcher series kicks ass
The Witcher TV series is not Game of Thrones. There are too many oversaturated scenes and folk tale monsters. It's not Lord of the Rings. There's too much pointless death with zero lessons learned. It's not quite the books or the games it pulls from, either, but somewhere suspended in between. The first season of The Witcher show is an original interpretation of Andrzej Sapkowski's fantasy epic with a massive Netflix-sized budget, and it's not just a great adaptation, it's one of the best shows I've seen this year.

The Witcher on Netflix 'leans more towards horror' than fantasy
The Witcher videogames are fantasy RPGs, based on fantasy novels and short stories written by Andrzej Sapkowski. But The Witcher series on Netflix "leans more towards horror," visual effects supervisor Julian Parry told SFX magazine (via GamesRadar), because the world of The Witcher is actually pretty horrific—and also because it's easier to manage.

Of course The Witcher 3 looks blurrier on Switch - but it's still brilliant
I’ve seen it, it’s real, and it’s a little bit like magic. The Witcher 3 runs on the Nintendo Switch – and sure it looks worse, but who cares? It fits in your pocket. That should probably be CD Projekt’s official marketing line for the Nintendo Switch version of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt – “Yes it looks worse, but it fits in your pocket, shut up.” What you’ve got here is a version of one of the greatest and largest RPGs of all time that’s been scaled back visually but is also uncompromised in terms of content...
