THE WITCHER Star Henry Cavill Shares A Behind The Scenes Photo As Work On Season 2 Resumes

Had COVID-19 not forced production to come to a halt, chances are we would have seen season two of The Witcher on Netflix this year. Instead, work is only just starting to ramp up on season two of the hit series, and Henry Cavill has now taken to Instagram to share a first look at his transformation.

As you can see, the Justice League star is clearly being put through the wringer in order to become Geralt of Rivia again, and it looks like he'll be seeing plenty of action during season two.

The first batch of episodes were a little hard to follow due to a trio of diverging timelines, but once the paths of Geralt, Yennefer, and Ciri finally crossed, things began to come together nicely. Now, The Witcher's second season promises to really delve into the relationship between those three key characters.

For fans of the books and video games, that's very exciting, and this is definitely one we'll have to keep an eye on. Unfortunately, the show is not expected to premiere on Netflix until mid/late 2021.

Check out Cavill's post below:

No bald cap this year. Just pounds of 2 types of medical tape and some glue.... Removal is a joy. Jacqui and Ailbhe here, though, have the deft touch of angels. Jacqui more so an Angel of Vengeance, but that's all part of her charm. #Witcher2 #CasuallyOpenRobe #CowboyBeard @RathoreJacqui @AilbheLemass

@WakandanQueen - doesnt that imply it was super bad? Like the logic of "no place to go but up"?

@MovieMonster - So we can forget a fun, simple story with the Rogues or Gorilla Grodd. It was never going to be that, huh? WB really has no faith in anyone not named Batman. [frick].

@LameLuka - Why am I getting BVS vibes from this? Is this still supposed to be a Flash movie??

@TheLight - Ezra Miller isn’t making me feel better about it.

TheLight - 8/20/2020, 12:19 PM

Good for them! Hopefully they stay safe as they film. Henry's love for this world is refreshing. I just love when actors genuinely enjoy their work. And Henry as Geralt, always gives me chills. The dude did a decent job in season 1. Hopefully season 2 will deliver more.

I would've love to see him as a Targaryen in the upcoming House of the Dragon. He would've been a epic choice to pull it off.

Season 1 was kinda messy, but Cavill was great throughout in my opinion. It can only get better, so I'm definitely looking forward to season 2

Genuinely surprised he seems to have Pixel 4 XL as his phone (looks the same to my white one). Now that the showrunner caught up to the main books I hope she can deliver a better story, but she really shouldn't have rushed through the compilations.

Fair warning, next season is going to be boring-ish, Blood of Elves is just a lot of set-up with very minimal action, it's the worst Witcher book I've read. Tons of scenes of people sitting around and talking. I hope to Rassilon they keep the menses scene, it's a great little moment of reality ensues.

Battabing - 8/20/2020, 4:41 PM

I hope season 2 is better than season 1.

LOL. He looks like he is about to cry. 😂😂😂😂😂
