Liam Hemsworth Debuts as Geralt in 'The Witcher' Season 5 Set Photos

The White Wolf is making his final stand as production for the fifth and concluding season of The Witcher is now underway. Exciting new photos have surfaced online, offering fans a glimpse of Liam Hemsworth stepping into the iconic role of Geralt de Rivia. These seemingly leaked set photos, available via the fan site Redanian Intelligence, showcase the Hunger Games star donning the character's signature long blonde hair. Alongside Hemsworth, familiar faces such as Meng’er Zhang as Milva and Joey Batey as Jaskier, who have been with the series since Henry Cavill's tenure, are also featured. Hemsworth was announced as Cavill's replacement for Seasons 4 and 5 back in October 2022.

In addition to the returning characters, set images have revealed new faces joining the cast in Season 4, who will carry over to the final season. Among them is the legendary actor Laurence Fishburne, known for his role in Morbius, who will portray Emiel Reigs.

These leaked set photos hint that Season 5 might draw inspiration from Andrzej Sapkowski’s "Tower of the Swallow," where Geralt encounters beekeepers who guide him towards druids. However, with Season 4 still pending release, the narrative could take numerous turns before fans can fully piece together the storyline from these glimpses.

Henry Cavill isn't the only departure from the series; Kim Bodnia, who played Geralt’s mentor Vesemir, will also not return for Season 4 due to scheduling conflicts. Netflix has yet to announce Bodnia's replacement or an official release date for Season 4.
