The Witcher (2019-)

The adventures of a monster hunter enhanced by magic told in a non-linear way.

An eagerly awaited adaptation for fantasy books fans as well as fans of the well-known game. Unjustly compared to Game Of Thrones even before being officially launched, it has potential in its complexity, rich imagination, interesting characters and adventures that keep the audience with their hearts in their mouths. The story told in parallel on multiple temporal planes actually makes sense and explains the intensity and importance of events that (almost) bring the three main personalities (the Witcher being only one of the three) on the same stage. It is worth seeing what they will do with season two and beyond.

Production: Netflix
Creator: Lauren Schmidt
With: Henry Cavill, Freya Allan, Anya Chalotra, MyAnna Buring, Jodhi May
