Behind the scenes of The Witcher: Blood Origin with its director and stars Laurence O’Fuarain and Sophia Brown

Toss a coin to your Netflix subscription, because this Christmas a brand new Witcher series will be making its way back onto our screens.

But cast aside thoughts of a certain white-haired ruffian laying waste to monsters with a flick of his sword, because The Witcher: Blood Origin is not like any Witcher series you’ve seen before. Set 1,200 years before the appearance of Geralt of Rivia (Henry Cavill, at least until the end of season 3, yet to be released), this story is one of elves, blood and the Conjunction of the Spheres: the cataclysm that introduced monsters and humans to a world of elves and dwarves.
