In the trailer did he have one. I think he only talked for like four seconds. Glad to see they’re doing the Witcher 1 plot though, that game had a great story that a ton of people couldn’t slog through the game to see

Looks like any generic dark fantasy show in that trailer.

They should adapt this scene

Thought the trailer looked pretty cool. Exceeded my expectations anyway.

Show’s not adapting anything from the games just book-only.

Hopefully it ends up being at least kinda fun and doesn’t lean too hard into the serious grim fantasy. The castlevania Netflix show ended up being surprisingly good so who knows

Netflix has seemingly unlimited money but I would’ve rather they didn’t spend 80% of it on Henry Caville. Mads would’ve been a sick geralt

He's too pretty to be a witcher. I hope this is like a younger Geralt and his face eventually gets busted up but that's not usually how Big Hollywood works.

Well the books take place over the course of like 15 or 20 years and it looks like the show will follow that, they show teenage Ciri but also some stuff that looks like from before her birth. So they could change up his appearance a lot and it would make sense. But I think you’re right that they wouldn’t hire Henry Cavill just to have him look older and scarred up for half the series

considering he talked about wanting 2 do it cuz he liked the game before he was cast im guessing he's probably taking a cut for it

The Witcher books got pretty dark at times though, and borrowed many references from other, much older, grim fantasy. I think as long as they stick to the books and don't try making a show adaptation of the game, then it should be a good show.

The book author, who loving despises the games, is working closely with the show runners. The show will not touch the games in any way.

he's mad because the games made way more money than he expected.

i guess the law in poland is that if a deal is made but if one side greatly benefits more than the other than the deal can be cancelled.

the books really aren't that great. The bloody baron story alone in 3 is leaps and bounds better than anything in the books

The author is buttsalt that the Witcher 3 destroyed his vision of a geralt who says "For drat, maysooth, I touch your breast please"
