After the announcement that Netflix will be doing a full-length anime movie based on 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:The Witcher universe and storyline, not 𓃲much else was known. However, now the streaming service has low-key added a description to the mo♑vie which explains it will center around Geralt's mentor Vesemir and his own journey as a witcher.
Vesemir, who has yet to appear in the show, is the oldest remaining witcher at Kaer Morhen and mentor to all the younger witchers. The reveals that Vesemir was also claimed through the Law of Surprise, much like Ciri, by a mysterious witcher named Deglan. Neither the books nor the games reveal much about Vesemir's past, but in the third game, Geralt mentions Vesemir's erstwhile tutor being a certain Barmin. It is unclear whether Netflix is putting its own spin on things, although it isܫ quite possible, as the games are not officially considered canon.
The anime movie, titled The Witcher: Nightmare of the Wolf, is supposed to expand on the universe of the show and will include a "powerful new threat" facing The Continent, as 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:TheGamer previously reported. The release date remains unknown, but is expected to be around the time Season 2 hits, which is sometime in 2021. As for who will voice Vesemir, news outlet speculates that it will be Theo James, who voiced the one Vesemir line𝔍 heard by the end of Season 1 of the show.
What we do know about Vesemir is that he is one of the few survivors of a brutal attack on Kaer Morhen, carried out by fanatics who considered wit🍬chers unnatural and a plague upon the world. By the 1260s - a hundred years after the massacre - he is the only witcher from his generation. Having been a mere fencing instructor before the attack, Vesemir did not have the knowledge of the mutagens required to carry out ඣthe Trial of the Grasses to turn young boys into witchers, so the trade is slowly dying out.
The attack will most likely be featured in the film, but also the events leading up to it - and maybe even the building of Kaer Morhen, as Vesemir is mentioned to be old enough to have witnessed it as a youth. However, all of this remains pure speculation, at least until Netflix confirms or denies anything– but if they are interested in generating serious amounts of hype, they may decide to stay tight-lipped. But with the number of people considering themselves fans of the franchise, it is safe to assume that they will figure out some pretty large chunks of the story themselves. I✃ mean, who ca🌊n wait?
