BREAKING: First Look at Liam Hemsworth as Geralt in The Witcher Season 4
I think the armor looks a little ill fitting but he's got a more lithe and accurate shape of Geralt. Was hoping they'd give him some new armor to avoid even more comparisons More on reddit.com

Shaun Dooley confirmed as King Foltest in the Netflix series
Well he dosen't look like Foltest but from his showreel you can tell the guy has charisma and can act! https://vimeo.com/159323216 I think he can work really well as a commanding king and father looking for a way to help his daughter! :) More on reddit.com

r/witcher on Reddit: List of characters and their names in the series
December 27, 2021 -

Hi,

I can't keep track of all the witches, mages etc and their names in the series. Does someone know a list of all characters (portrait from the series) and their names? (not the actors) Even though I read the books and played the games (10 years ago) I get confused all the time....

Did not find a complete list with Google

Thanks in advance
