How to The Witcher season 4 in New Zealand
New season, new Witcher, as Netflix’s dark fantasy returns.
Henry Cavill is out, the former star of this smash hit video game adaptation having slunk off to sling his sword elsewhere—namely the upcoming Highlander remake from John Wick director Chad Stahelski. Liam Hemsworth is in, slipping on a white wig to play our grimly heroic protagonist, outcast monster hunter, Geralt of Rivia. How audiences react to that will make or break The Witcher as a streaming series.

What is The Witcher season 4 about?
The continuing adventures of Geralt of Rivera, that’s what: stout, snow-haired, mutant hunter of monsters who’s a dab hand with a sword. After the momentous events of season three, Geralt, the sorceress Yennefer, and Princess Ciri find themselves separated by a land plunged into war and enemies by the bushel. But don’t fear: new and unexpected allies will be along to help guide them back together for the big finale, in the upcoming fifth and final season.
The cast of The Witcher season 4
Liam Hemsworth is Geralt of Rivia; Anya Chalotra is Yennefer of Vengerberg, a quarter-elf sorceress; Freya Allan is Ciri, Cirilla Fiona Elen Riannon, the crown princess of Cintra; Eamon Farren is Cahir Mawr Dyffryn aep Ceallach, nicknamed the “Black Knight”, and pretty clearly a villain; Joey Batey as Jaskier, a traveling bard and Geralt’s bestie and hype man; with Mimî M. Khayisa, Anna Shaffer, Royce Pierreson, Wilson Mbomio, Mahesh Jadu, and Mecia Simson heading up the sprawling ensemble cast.
