Netflix Wraps Up Filming for the Witcher Series
So, the big news: Netflix has just finished shooting the highly‑anticipated The Witcher adaptation. A massive cast of fantasy lovers has bid farewell to some of the most stunning filming locations across Hungary, Poland, and Spain. The crew’s last‑minute Instagram posts captured the bittersweet good‑byes—think tears, cheers, and a whole lot of “I’ll miss you, Budapest.”
Goodbye, Budapest!

- Feel the end‑of‑day chill as the crew lights with the lights turned off and the excitement still buzzing.
Heroic Hollywood: Henry Cavill’s Monsters
- Henry Cavill will don a white wig to play the iconic monster‑slayer Geralt of Rivia. Spoiler: it’s all about the wound‑red hair and perfectly coiffed beard.
- He’s joined by Lars Mikkelsen (yes, the brother of Mads) and Adam Levy—because a killer team is a killer team.
- Jodhi May will land a cameo as Magga the Frog, the sinister seer from Game of Thrones. She promises to bring a little extra drama.
Where the Sheep Are (and the Warts)
Fans will be thrilled to learn that the running script pulls straight from Andrzej Sapkowski’s original novels, not the video game spin‑offs. Scrutinize your reading: the books have glued readers in Poland and across Central & Eastern Europe for decades a good while now.
The saga’s setting? The Continent—a medieval, European‑style landscape that has given way to the hissing of Sharp‑taste “continent” again.
Hype Now, Show Later
- Expected release: later this year.
- Netflix is filling the Game of Thrones‑vacuum with a serious fantasy juggernaut.
- Expect killer action sequences that borrow from video‑game mechanics—think spectacular combat combos or the infamous “time‑delay” moral choices.
In short, the screen is painting the early, complete picture: epic storytelling, blockbuster acting, and a hefty nod to game fans. Bind your tissues, grab popcorn, and patch your phone’s battery—they’re almost here, banda; the Witcher is on the way!
