Netflix wasted no time kick-starting Season 2 of The Witcher after 76 million households were noted to have watched at least some of Season 1 in the first month of its release. Filming on the sophomore run initially got underway in February, only to be quickly halted as part of an industry-wide shutdown in the UK, but it’s also reportedly one of the first projects due to restart in the country asap.
For those who enjoyed the streaming service’s take on Andrzej Sapkowski’s book series, an expanded cast awaits in Season 2. Joining Henry Cavill, Freya Allan, and Anya Chalotra in The Witcher‘s second season are Yasen Atour as Coen, Agnes Bjorn as Vereena, Paul Bullion as Lambert, Thue Ersted Rasmussen as Eskel, Aisha Fabienne Ross as Lydia, Kristofer Hivju as Nivellen, and Mecia Simson as Francesca.
“Probably my favorite additions for Season 2 are the new witchers,” showrunner Lauren Schmidt Hissrich told The Wrap.
