The Witcher has returned to Netflix with Henry Cavill in the role of Geralt of Rivia for the very last time. Season three was released on the streaming service on Thursday, June 29 at 8am in the UK and will be separated into two parts.
The new season is inspired by the second installment in Andrzej Sapkowski's Witcher book series, Time of Contempt, and will see Geralt of Rivia finally reckoning with his feelings. Although there will still be plenty of mages and beasts to fend off as he and Yennefer of Vengerberg [Anya Chalotra] continue to protect Princess Cirilla of Cintra [Freya Allan].
A synopsis reads: "Geralt takes Ciri into hiding, determined to protect his newly-reunited family against those who threaten to destroy it. Entrusted with Ciri’s magical training, Yennefer leads them to the protected fortress of Aretuza, where they hope to uncover more about the girl’s untapped powers; instead, they discover they’ve landed in a battlefield of political corruption, dark magic, and treachery. They must fight back, put everything on the line – or risk losing each other forever."
