Liam Hemsworth Debuts as Geralt in The Witcher Season 5 Set Photos
The White Wolf returns for his final adventure as production for The Witcher Season 5 is in full swing. Recently leaked set photos, courtesy of the fan site Redanian Intelligence, have given fans a glimpse of Liam Hemsworth stepping into the iconic role of Geralt of Rivia. The images showcase Hemsworth in full costume, sporting the character's signature long blonde hair. Familiar faces such as Meng'er Zhang as Milva and Joey Batey as Jaskier also appear, continuing their journey from the days when Henry Cavill led the series. Hemsworth's casting was announced back in October 2022, marking his takeover from Cavill for both Season 4 and the concluding fifth season.

The set photos also introduce new characters set to appear in Season 4 and carry through to the final season, including the legendary actor Laurence Fishburne, known for his role in Morbius, who will portray Emiel Regis. Fans are buzzing with speculation that Season 5 might draw inspiration from Andrzej Sapkowski's Tower of the Swallow, particularly a storyline involving beekeepers and druids. However, with Season 4 still pending release, the narrative could take any turn as it builds toward the series' conclusion.
Henry Cavill isn't the only departure from the series; Kim Bodnia, who played Geralt's mentor Vesemir, will not return for Season 4 due to scheduling conflicts. Netflix has yet to announce Bodnia's replacement, and there is no official release date for Season 4 either.
