The White Wolf is back for the final chapter. Production for The Witcher Season 5 is currently underway, and new photos featuring Liam Hemsworth as the lead, Geralt de Rivia, alongside other new and returning characters, have surfaced online. These seemingly leaked set photos, shared by the fan site Redanian Intelligence, showcase the Hunger Games actor in full costume, complete with the character's iconic long blonde hair. Familiar faces such as Meng'er Zhang as Milva and Joey Batey as Jaskier, who have been part of the series since Henry Cavill's tenure, are also featured. Hemsworth was announced to replace Cavill for Season 4 and the fifth and final season back in October 2022.

Additionally, set images have revealed new characters set to debut in Season 4 and continue into the final season, including the legendary actor Laurence Fishburne, known for his role in Morbius, who will portray Emiel Reigs.
These leaked photos hint that Season 5 might draw inspiration from Andrzej Sapkowski's Tower of the Swallow, where Geralt encounters beekeepers who guide him toward druids. However, with Season 4 yet to be released, the storyline could take any number of directions, leaving plenty of room for speculation and anticipation among fans.
Cavill isn't the only actor to depart the series and have their role recast. Kim Bodnia, who played Geralt's father figure and mentor Vesemir, will not return for Season 4 due to scheduling conflicts. Netflix has yet to announce Bodnia's replacement or an official release date for Season 4, keeping fans eagerly awaiting further updates.
