Netflix Releases Witcher Season 4 Teaser Featuring Liam Hemsworth as Geralt

Netflix has released the first teaser for The Witcher Season 4, featuring Liam Hemsworth as the new Geralt of Rivia, succeeding Henry Cavill who departed after three seasons due to creative differences and a desire to stay closer to Andrzej Sapkowski's novels. The eight-episode season will premiere worldwide on October 30, 2025, and continues the story of Geralt, Yennefer, and Ciri as they navigate a continent-wide war and form unexpected alliances. The showrunners filmed Seasons 4 and 5 back-to-back, adapting Sapkowski's novels Baptism of Fire, The Tower of the Swallow, and Lady of the Lake, with Season 5 confirmed as the series finale. The teaser highlights Hemsworth's Geralt engaging in intense combat, aiming to reassure fans that the series will retain its trademark grit and high-stakes action. Returning cast members include Anya Chalotra and Freya Allan, with Laurence Fishburne joining the ensemble. While fans remain cautious about the casting change, the new season promises a darker, more politically charged narrative and the continuation of Geralt's perilous journey.
