Ciri Actress Teases The End, Spills on Liam Hemsworth

May 13, 2024 12:42 PM

The latest article discusses the forthcoming conclusion of Netflix's "The Witcher" series with its fifth season, and shares actress Freya Allan's (Ciri) thoughts on the series ending and the casting of Liam Hemsworth as the new Geralt. Freya Allan reflects on her time playing Ciri, acknowledging the valuable experience and skills she gained, including stunt work and horseback riding. Although ready for new challenges, Allan admits feeling daunted by the prospect of the final seasons. She expresses enthusiasm for exploring Ciri's storyline with the Rats and shares a positive outlook on working with Hemsworth, empathizing with the pressure he faces stepping into a well-established role.

Will Liam Hemsworth be able to live up to the expectations as the new Geralt in "The Witcher"?

Fans and cast members alike will undoubtedly miss Henry Cavill, but Liam Hemsworth has received positive remarks from co-star Freya Allan. The switch will test Hemsworth's ability to assimilate into the established world of "The Witcher," though Allan's supportive comments suggest he is being welcomed into the family. Viewers will have to wait and see how well Hemsworth embodies the character once season four premieres.

"The Witcher," produced by Netflix, is based on the book series by Polish author Andrzej Sapkowski. Before the Netflix series, the story had been adapted into a wildly popular video game franchise by CD Projekt Red, starting with "The Witcher" in 2007, followed by "The Witcher 2: Assassins of Kings," and "The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt," the latter of which is often hailed as one of the best RPGs of all time due to its expansive world, deep storytelling, and complex characters. Throughout the games, one plays as Geralt of Rivia, the same character featured in the Netflix series. The success of the video games has certainly contributed to the interest and anticipation surrounding Netflix's adaptation and the cast changes involving key characters like Geralt.
