The shooting for The Witcher Season 2 began last month.
Jason Momoa has shared a piece of fan art for The Witcher (Netflix) with Geralt himself, Henry Cavill. The Witcher is based on a series of novels by Andrzej Sapkowki. The Witcher takes place in the fantasy land that is the Continent and it follows Cavill’s Geralt of Rivia. The series made its debut on Netflix last year. It was an immense success despite being welcomed with mildly positive reviews. The show’s sudden vogue was good news for Netflix since the company had already allocated a season 2 renewal for The Witcher before the premiere of its first.
Production of The Witcher Season 2 was delayed this year by the outbreak of coronavirus. But the shooting finally began last month. While the work on the new season seems to be going well till now. There is still some time that The Witcher Season 2 hits the TV screens. The news images of The Witcher Season 2 have kept the hype for the series.
That was really the case a few days ago when a chunk of Witcher fan art starring Momoa and Cavill’s Geralt standing back-to-back went viral. It seems like Witcher fans weren’t the only ones impressed by the artwork. Momoa shared the piece on his Instagram stories last night. He even tagged Cavill.
Check out the actor’s post below:
The Witcher Season 2 is not the only thing that Netflix is working on. Netflix has announced The Witcher Blood Origin in the beginning of this year. There are rumors that Momoa will be seen in leads, perhaps. However, it is impossible to know this until Blood Origin’s casting announcement is made.
It is set 1200 years prior to the events of the current show. The Witcher: Blood Origin will be a 6 part live-action prequel. It will tell the story of how the first Witcher came into existence. This sounds like only Momoa would suit this role. Also, he has more than enough experience doing complex stunts.
In other words, Momoa uniting The Witcher franchise gives rise to all the senses in the world, but only time could tell if this will actually happen.
