The Witcher series will soon return with season 4. A new Geralt will be in the game, but the first leaked images smell like things are getting heated up again…
The Witcher franchise is booming! After the success of novels and then video games, things take off Netflix that she has been enjoying a good time for several years now. The SVOD platform has actually monopolized The Witcher universe to adapt it over and over again.
In fact, the SVOD platform multiplies projects related to the franchise – or even cancels them The Witcher. Of course, what is most captivating is the series that adapts the adventures of Geralt of Rivia and his traveling companions! Filming for the fourth season is currently underway and more and more images are leaking, revealing a scene that feels like déjà vu…
Why does The Witcher season 4 revisit old scenes?
Last week we discovered the first pictures of Liam Hemsworth in Geralt’s costume. The youngest of the Hemsworth siblings takes over the leadership after the departure of the popular Henry Cavill. This change in appearance is obviously not without concern for fans, even if the series tries to explain this.
These stolen images therefore give us an overview of the performance of the actor and his stunt double in season 4 of The Witcher. But they challenge us on another point: they show an event that has already been seen in the series. In fact, we acknowledge the confrontation that has taken place between Geralt and Vilgefortz in the third season. How can this be explained?
This is the fansite Redanian secret service which enlightens us about this repetition. It seems that the next season will begin with several flashbacks recounting the Witcher’s exploits in arms. These flashbacks would be brought to life by a specific storyteller Stribogwell known to readers of Andrzej Sapkowski’s works.
Stribog would narrate our hero’s adventures to a group of children who intervene in his story several times. Everyone has their own version, which not only explains the repetition of the fight with Vilgefortz, but also helps justify it Makeover Geralt.
We can therefore wonder if Henry Cavill will also appear on the big screen. It is not out of the question that the series will use old scenes. This would reinforce the idea that Geralt’s image varies depending on your point of view. But we will probably just know all this 2025, the year in which Season 4 of The Witcher is expected. Meanwhile we find The Witcher in a promising animated fan film!
