Netflix's adaptation of The Witcher is set to begin its fourth and second-last season this coming October 30, 2025, the streaming company has announced, with Liam Hemsworth in Geralt's boots after Henry Cavill left the show. Alongside the premiere date announcement, Netflix also debuted the first proper clip of Hemsworth in the role.
While Cavill got the show going, and Netflix's adaptation is certainly part of what helped get the momentum going in what can now be called a renaissance for videogame to TV and film adaptations, it'll be up to Hemsworth to close out the show as he helms its final two seasons, which were shot all together so once filming ended, Netflix just had to put it together.
"As a Witcher fan, I’m over the moon about the opportunity to play Geralt of Rivia," Hemsworth said, per a a blog post from Netflix's Tudum website.
Like other streamers, Netflix has added other videogame adaptations since it helped kick things off with The Witcher. It currently has an Assassin's Creed show in the works, and on the animated front, Cyberpunk: Edgerunners is coming back with a second season.
Henry Cavill also isn't done with videogame adaptations, as he's ecstatically working on a Warhammer adaptation.
