It is only a matter of time before The Witcher 4 hits the screens, now that the filming is underway. And there are plenty of surprises coming our way, but the biggest shake-up of all is the White Wolf himself. It is no secret that Liam Hemsworth has replaced Henry Cavill as Geralt of Rivia, and there is significant anticipation to see how that creative decision plays out. Meanwhile, fresh updates are coming in to keep fans entertained until the new Geralt makes his debut on the Netflix show's universe.  

Here are all the latest filming updates and cast additions for the fourth chapter of the action-packed, intricately crafted world of The Witcher. 

The latest filming location for The Witcher 4 is Bourne Woods in Surrey. Alongside this, there are also some activities going on in North Wales- like fake boulders and other set pieces are being put in place. One confirmed spot for the new season is The Crystal Grotto and its scenic surroundings near Cobham, UK. The Peace Garden at the Muslim Burial Ground near Woking is also on the list for Season 4. 

Then there is Devon, specifically at Haytor Quarry and Haytor Rocks, as its sweeping vistas provide a perfect spot for horse-riding scenes. And last but certainly not least is Puzzlewood in Gloucestershire, England, a location that has been the backdrop for many big names like Star Wars, Harry Potter, and Merlin. Puzzlewood is even said to have sparked The Lord of the Rings creator J.R.R. Tolkien’s imagination.

There are also many new actors stepping into The Witcher world to fill in the void left by Henry Cavill. 

Edmund Kingsley, celebrated for his roles in 3 Body Problem and Slow Horses, is the latest star to join The Witcher cast. The British actor will play Jocephus of Muroc in the fourth season. Tom Benedict Knight, known from Kingsman: The Golden Circle, is also on board. He will take on the role of Ardal aep Dahy, a key ally of Emperor Emhyr var Emreis. The last addition, so far, is Andrew French, from The Exorcist: The Beginning, who will play Rispat La Pointe.

These casting decisions in a way suggest the show is about to delve into the darker side of the story moving forward, and there are reports of the show potentially taking a futuristic storyline. Nonetheless, while the next chapter of The Witcher is currently being filmed in the UK, Netflix has yet to drop a release date. In the meantime, one can only keep their eyes peeled for more updates on the production.
