Late in October, the second season's last trailer for The Witcher debuted online, giving us a better idea of what to expect from the upcoming episode.

Major hints regarding how the program's second season will pan out can be seen in the most recent trailer. Invoking scenes of magic, murder, and monsters as well as majestic views of the Continent and ominous foreshadowings about Ciri's power, Geralt declares, “None of us will have any rest until there are no monsters left in the world.”

The Witcher Season 2 Cast

• Henry Cavill as Geralt of Rivia
• Anya Chalotra as Yennefer of Vengerberg
• Freya Allan as Ciri, the Lion Cub of Cintra
• Joey Batey as Jaskier
• Kim Bodnia as Vesemir
• Mimî M Khayisa as Fringilla Vigo
• Anna Shaffer as Triss

While Geralt was a bit of a lone (White) wolf in season 1, season 2 will introduce us to more Witchers.

Vesemir, who serves as the focal point in the animated Witcher prequel film Nightmare of the Wolf, will be portrayed by Killing Eve's Kim Bodnia. As fellow Witchers, Lambert, Con, and Eskel, respectively, Paul Bullion, Yasen Atour, and Basil Eidenbenz are also joining the cast. According to Iranian Intelligence(opens in new tab), Joel Adrian will play Henrik, another Witcher.

Given that these monster-slaying experts are often thought of as a dying breed, it's fascinating that the producers appear to be adding extra Witchers for season 2. Geralt's faction seems to be one of the few Witcher groups actively engaged in combating the monster danger facing the Continent, even though other Witcher schools like the Cat and Bear are mentioned in the texts.

Other arrivals include Kristofer Hivju, who will play Nivellen, a man cursed with a monster's body. He will appear in the pilot, also known as “A Grain of Truth.”

The Witcher Season 2 Story

The Witcher season 2's first six episodes have already been released, so we know most of what happens. But we won't reveal anything here, so everything you read following is what we already predicted would happen in the show's second season. To better understand what might occur, read that instead.

Here is the official logline provided by Netflix for the show's return:

“Geralt of Rivia invites Princess Cirilla to Kaer Morhen, his childhood home because he believes Yennefer's life was lost during the Battle of Sodden. This is the safest spot he is aware of. He has to defend the girl from something even more terrible than the monarchs, elves, humans, and demons that fight for dominance outside the walls of the Continent: the secret power she possesses inside.”

According to the showrunner Hissrich, season 2 is about Geralt being a father figure to Ciri, so anticipate that connection to be the main focus. Geralt, a man who prefers to communicate through grunts rather than words, might start speaking more now that he is a father.

The now-released official Witcher map(opens in a new tab) and Witcher chronology assist make sense of the show-resulting in a multi-tale anthology. It was how it told stories in many locations and throughout a non-linear timeline.
