As previously known, the series would return for a fourth
season, with Henry Cavill stepping down as Geralt after Season 3, and Liam
Hemsworth taking over the iconic role.
Casting director Sophie Holland, in an interview with
Deadline, has confirmed that a fifth season featuring Hemsworth is also in the
works.
Holland stated, "We're about to start filming Season 4
with Liam Hemsworth, and after a short break, we'll dive right into Season
5."
When asked about her reaction to Cavill's departure from The
Witcher, Holland chose not to comment directly but expressed excitement about
Hemsworth's contribution, highlighting his significant fan base.
She added that Season 4 would introduce a mix of new
characters and beloved returning faces.
Responding to fans' suggestions that the show should have
ended after Season 3, when Cavill exited, showrunner Lauren Schmidt Hissrich
explained that they had the option for Geralt to leave and conclude the show,
but they decided against it.
"I mean, we had the choice to have Geralt exit and to
end the show. [But] that’s not something that we were willing to do. There’s
just too many stories left to tell."
