Two months have passed since the epic fantasy, The Witcher started shooting for season 3 with our favorite characters. Freya Allan (Ciri), and Henry Cavill are relentlessly shooting for the new episodes of The Witcher. The upcoming season will have more new characters with new adventures and mysteries. And with the latest casting, we will likely see Ciri displaying the potential that she always had in her blood.

New casting hints at a canon Ciri swordfight sequence in The Witcher season 3

Granddaughter of Queen Calanthe Ciri, born with unknown powers, was fated to be the doom of The Witcher’s world. A warrior at heart, Ciri always desired to prove her abilities but her chaotic magic disrupted her. Moreover, bound with Geralt by a destiny, she always remains under his protection, who wishes to keep her at a safe distance.

But with growing powers and the will to do something, there’s no stopping her now. Season 3 seems to bring Ciri out of Geralt’s shadow to an independent platform, especially with the entry of Fabio. 

Since Stuart Thompson was cast as Fabio Sachs, fans have been wondering about the future of Ciri’s character. Mainly, they were excited for the two characters to meet, which is a memorable part of Time of Contempt. In the book, Fabio’s boss Molnar Giancardi orders him to show Ciri around the town while Yennefer and he discuss important business.

However, this little excursion turns out to be way wilder, putting Ciri’s practice to the test. The wyvern incident might come as the place where we finally see Ciri wielding her powers through a sword. This means she will at last get past the dummy training in Kaer Morhen and embrace her fighter instincts.

Besides, this arc will be a good news for Freya Allan, who was eagerly waiting to do some real action from the beginning. She even mentioned that she loves action scenes, jumping, and swinging all around the place.

The Witcher will probably finish production in September and will likely release in 2023. Until then, keep tracking all shhot updates with us in this space. Alternatively, revive your memories of previous seasons, streaming only on Netflix.
