The White Wolf is back for the final chapter. Production for the much-anticipated The Witcher Season 5 is now in full swing, and fans are getting their first glimpses of Liam Hemsworth stepping into the iconic role of Geralt de Rivia. New and returning characters are also featured in recently leaked set photos, which have surfaced on the dedicated Witcher fan site, Redanian Intelligence.
These exclusive images showcase Hemsworth donning the full costume, complete with Geralt's signature long blonde hair. Alongside him, familiar faces such as Meng'er Zhang, reprising her role as Milva, and Joey Batey, returning as the beloved bard Jaskier, are also seen. These actors have been part of the series since it was led by former Superman star Henry Cavill. Hemsworth's casting as Geralt was announced in October 2022, with the actor set to take over the role starting from Season 4 through to the fifth and final season.

In addition to the returning cast, set photos also reveal new characters joining the fray in Season 4, who will carry through to the final season. Among them is the legendary actor Laurence Fishburne, known for his role in Morbius, who will portray Emiel Reigs.
Based on the leaked images, fans are buzzing with speculation that Season 5 might draw inspiration from Andrzej Sapkowski’s Tower of the Swallow, particularly the storyline involving Geralt's encounter with beekeepers and his subsequent journey towards the druids. However, with Season 4 yet to be released, the narrative could take any number of twists and turns. There's still much to anticipate before fans can piece together the full story.
Henry Cavill isn't the only cast member to depart the series. Kim Bodnia, who played Geralt’s mentor and father figure Vesemir, will not return for Season 4 due to scheduling conflicts. Netflix has yet to announce who will take over the role of Vesemir, and there is no official release date for Season 4 at this time.
