A new trailer for season 2 of The Witcher has been released, and it offers a great idea of what to expect when the show returns this December. Following a first batch of episodes that occasionally became a tad confusing thanks to all those different timelines, it appears the series is going to follow the games even closer this time by pitting Henry Cavill's Geralt (and Ciri) against a lot of monsters.
Their partnership is also highlighted on a poster, and seeing their bond develop promises to be a highlight when The Witcher returns to Netflix. For those of you anxious to learn what the future holds in store for Yennefer, though, this sneak peek also contains some big hints about where we find the powerful sorceress.
Among the creatures highlighted here are Vereena the bruxa, Nivellen, and the Leshen.
"Convinced Yennefer’s life was lost at the Battle of Sodden, Geralt of Rivia brings Princess Cirilla to the safest place he knows, his childhood home of Kaer Morhen," reads the synopsis. "While the Continent’s kings, elves, humans and demons strive for supremacy outside its walls, he must protect the girl from something far more dangerous: the mysterious power she possesses inside."
Anya Chalotra (Yennefer), Freya Allan (Ciri), and Joey Batey (Jaskier) are all set to return for the second season, alongside series newcomers Yasen Atour as the Witcher Coen, Agnes Bjorn as the bruxa Vereena, Paul Bullion as the Witcher Lambert, Thue Ersted Rasmussen as the Witcher Eskel, Aisha Fabienne Ross as Lydia, Kristofer Hivju as Nivellen, and Mecia Simson as Francesca.
All episodes of The Witcher season 2 arrive on Netflix on December 17 (the same day Spider-Man: No Way Home swings into theaters). Check out this awesome new trailer and poster below:
