Netflix has released new stills and the first poster art for its upcoming live-action drama series adaptation of The Witcher with Henry Cavill in the role of Geralt.
Besides Henry Cavill, The Witcher also has Anya Cholatra as sorceress Yennefer and Freya Allan as Princess Ciri as the other two lead characters. The series is filming on location in Hungary.
The Witcher, based on the fantasy novels by Andrzej Sapkowski, is an epic tale of fate and family, and follows Geralt of Rivia, a solitary monster hunter, as he struggles to find his place in a world where people often prove more wicked than beasts.

Other previously announced cast include Jodhi May as Calanthe, Bjorn Hlynur Haraldsson as Eist, Adam Levy as Mousesack, MyAnna Buring as Tissaia, Mimi Ndiweni as Fringilla, Therica Wilson-Read as Sabrina, and Emma Appleton as Renfri.
Eamon Farren will appear as Cahir, Joey Batey as Jaskier, Lars Mikkelsen as Stregobor, Royce Pierreson as Istredd, Maciej Musial as Sir Lazlo, Wilson Radjou-Pujalte as Dara, and Anna Shaffer as Triss.
