A big name is coming to the world of The Witcher. Laurence Fishburne is joining the cast for the fourth season of the Netflix fantasy series.
The streaming service revealed that he will play “Regis, a fan-favorite character from the Witcher books and games who will cross paths with Geralt in season four.” The actor said he is “very excited to be joining the cast and looks forward to exploring the wondrous world of The Witcher.”
A lot will change when the series returns for season four. Liam Hemsworth is taking over the lead role of Geralt of Rivia following Henry Cavill’s departure at the end of season three. Geralt will face new challenges and realizes he can no longer stay neutral as he has tried to do in the previous three seasons.
Series creator Lauren Schmidt Hissrich teased the following about The Witcher season four, per TUDUM:
“[Geralt’s] side is Ciri and Yen, and he will do anything [for them]. He will get involved in anything he has to get into in order to make that happen.
This is the beginning of what fans [of the books] will know as the Hanza. It’s the group traveling with Geralt for the rest of the books. This becomes his newfound family … He begins to realize that he needs help to get Yennefer and Ciri back, and when you need to help, you actually have to give of yourself as well. So, we start to watch the Hanza build and start to see that there are some amazing emotional connections to come there as well.
It’s really fun. That’s still a struggle for Geralt. This is a man who has always claimed he doesn’t have emotions because he can’t. And we clearly know that is not true. We’ll start to see those boundaries tested again in season four.”
Ciri and Yennefer will have their own challenges to face. Ciri travels with the group of teens she found in the third season finale and Yennefer tries to deal with the death of her mentor.
Production of season four of The Witcher will begin this spring. The premiere date for the season will be announced later.
