Liam Hemsworth Debuts as Geralt in 'The Witcher' Season 5 Set Photos

The White Wolf is making his final appearance as production for the last season of *The Witcher*, Season 5, is now underway. Fans have been treated to new set photos featuring Liam Hemsworth stepping into the iconic role of Geralt de Rivia. These images, seemingly leaked and shared by the fan site Redanian Intelligence, showcase Hemsworth fully transformed with the character's signature long blonde hair. Alongside him, familiar faces like Meng'er Zhang as Milva and Joey Batey as Jaskier are also seen, continuing their roles from previous seasons when Henry Cavill was at the helm. Hemsworth was announced as Cavill's replacement for both Season 4 and the concluding Season 5 back in October 2022.

In addition to these familiar faces, set photos also reveal new characters set to join the cast in Season 4 and continue into the final season. Among them is the legendary actor Laurence Fishburne, known for his role in *Morbius*, who will portray Emiel Reigs.

From the leaked set photos, fans are already speculating that Season 5 might draw inspiration from Andrzej Sapkowski's *Tower of the Swallow*, hinting at a storyline involving Geralt meeting beekeepers who guide him toward druids. However, with Season 4 yet to be released, the narrative could take numerous turns. There's still plenty of story to unfold before fans can piece together the clues from these images.

Henry Cavill isn't the only cast member to depart the series; Kim Bodnia, who played Geralt's father figure and mentor Vesemir, will not return for Season 4 due to scheduling conflicts. Netflix has not yet announced who will take on the role of Vesemir, nor has an official release date been set for Season 4.
