We’re inching closer and closer to a year since The Witcher season 2 debuted on Netflix, and fans of the fantasy series starring Henry Cavill are eager to find out when season 3 will arrive. At last year’s TUDUM, the streamer’s fan event that highlights many of their biggest shows and movies, we got confirmation that The Witcher season 3 was happening. Now, all eyes have been on this year’s TUDUM, wondering what news about the show and its spin-offs we’d get.

During the virtual event on Sept. 23, we got some behind-the-scenes sneak peek footage with stars Henry Cavill, Anya Chalotra, and Freya Allan, as well as an update from the Geralt of Rivia actor.

The Witcher season 3 is not coming in 2022

Cavill showed up at TUDUM and let everyone know that The Witcher season 3 is confirmed for summer 2023! That’s a long time from now, but I’m sure it’ll be worth the wait!

The cast also shared a new sneak peek behind-the-scenes footage from The Witcher season 3 at TUDUM.

The Witcher is an adaptation of the popular book series of the same name by Andrzej Sapkowski. Apart from the books and the Netflix show, fans of the franchise are also super into the video games which serve as a sequel series to the books. Fans were excited when it was announced in 2018 that Cavill, best known for playing Superman, would be portraying protagonist Geralt. He’s done an awesome job bringing the character to life.

The series premiered in December 2019 and it didn’t take long for it to become a major hit for Netflix. Stay tuned for more updates on The Witcher season 3!
