The Witcher Releases Season 2 Teaser Images for Those Who Blinked
Look, it's not like fans of showrunner & EP Lauren S. Hissrich and Netflix's Henry Cavill-starring The Witcher didn't appreciate the preview they received on Friday as part of its Geeked Week presentation. Plus with the series confirmed to return before the end of the year, they know they'll get getting a ton more previews at next month's virtual WitcherCon. But even with all of that said, we can kinda understand some of the murmurings about it being awfully short and way too quick with the cuts to truly appreciate it- especially the moments showcasing a very empowered Ciri (Freya Allan). Basically, there were a lot of "great teasers as long as you don't blink." Well, the fine folks over at the streamer running the week's festivities heard the call and released what looks to be pretty much every scene from the clip- making it much easier to add to your Charlie Kelly/It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia conspiracy board. Here's a look at the images, followed by another look at the teaser:
No longer lost in the woods, here's a look back at the montage of scenes featuring Ciri and more released during Geeked Week for the second season of The Witcher:
