The fantasy drama series The Witcher 3, which is inspired by the novel written by Andrzej Sapkowski, is one of the most anticipated seasons of the year and the show has been the subject of discussion since its 2019 debut. The Netflix series, which stars Anya Chalotra as Yennefer of Vengerberg and Henry Cavill as Geralt of Rivia, is all prepared for a two-part release of its upcoming third season. Henry Cavill has faced endless monsters in his role as Geralt of Rivia in The Witcher. But when Cavill spoke about his final season on the show, he said, it’s very very dangerous. 

Regarding Season 3 of the show, Cavill tells Tudum, “Now, there is a real threat.” He says, “It’s genuine; it’s no longer theoretical — it’s practical. And it’s very, very dangerous. They are walking into the lion’s den everywhere they go.”

What to expect from season 3?

According to the showrunner, the third season’s theme is “family is worth fighting for” in reference to the new family that Ciri, Yennefer, and Geralt have created. He said, “We get to see everything on the Continent change, which is super exciting.” The Witcher’s character is destined to face more dangers and emotions than ever before even though this season promises monsters and magic.
