That, and the fact that Vesemir is a huge part of Geralt and Ciri's story, pretty much cements the idea that we're probably going to see 🔜him in the show. In season 1, Geralt even references Vesemir's name, meaning that he already exi🌳sts within the live action universe, so it's just a matter of time before we see his face.

As to who will be cast to play the old witcher, nobody really knows just yet. Mark Hamill of Star Wars fame 168澳洲幸💙运5开奖网:expressed his interest in playing the character, and it seems like many fans love the idea. If it doesn't end up being Hamill, there are certainly more than a few other actors out there that would be gr💟eat for the role.

Whether Vesemir is there or not, The Witcher's second season is expected to be out some time in 2021. Unlike the show's first season, the next installment will 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:follow a more linear storyline instead of jumping back and forth across th🔥e timeline.

If you can't bear to wait that long, you could always go back and revisit 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:The Witcher 3: Wild Huntwhich was recently rereleased on the Nintendo Switch and Xb🥂ox Game Pass. The 2015 Game of the Year is experiencing revitalized popularity thanks to the show, and the game without a doubt holds up today the same way it did five years ago.
