Season 3 of The Witcher fell short of fantasy lovers’ expectations by deviating from the original books and merging multiple subplots, resulting in a disappointing reception. However, it concluded with a hint of redemption, paving the way for another season to address the shortcomings. While Ciri’s development and the Falka angle intrigued viewers. One of the lingering points of interest will be Netflix’s explanation for recasting Henry Cavill, keeping hopes alive for future improvements in the series.

To stay on track with Season 4, the enthusiasts were eager to know if the wheels were in motion for the next installment.

What is cooking with The Witcher 4?

Excitement bubbled among The Witcher lovers when rumblings of a fourth season emerged. This was soon after the news broke about Cavill’s exit and Liam Hemsworth’s casting as the new Geralt. Alongside this revelation, the confirmation of Season 5 heightened anticipation, promising fresh plotlines and characters. Joey Batey hinted at something extraordinary brewing in Season 4, teasing the much-awaited “hanza” moment that fans had longed to witness.

There was a glimmer of hope as writer Javier Grillo-Marxuach’s tweet signaled the restart of Season 4’s scriptwriting. However, despite this promising development, filming hit roadblocks due to the WAG and SAG-AFTRA strikes. Initially slated for a September 2023 start, reports suggested filming delays. Now it might begin on an unknown date in 2024. This will elongate the wait for the new season until 2025, leaving devoted fans on tenterhooks.

While you cling to anticipation, here’s a treasure trove of details awaiting you for the upcoming season.

The mystery surrounding Geralt’s recasting with Liam Hemsworth adds intrigue, with conflicting hints about how this change would occur.
