Other than the trailer for the second season, Netflix, at its first WitcherCon virtual fan event streamed on YouTube on Friday, also unspooled a trailer for Nightmare of the Wolf, an anime film that will premiere on 23 August.
Nightmare of the Wolf, an animated prequel, tells the story of Vesemir, Geralt's mentor, and will also link viewers to the Kaer Morhen of the past and how it looked and functioned before it became the destroyed castle of Geralt's time.
"Before Geralt, there was Vesemir - a cocky young witcher who delights in slaying monsters for coin. When a dangerous new power rises on the Continent, Vesemir learns that some witchering jobs are about more than just money," reads the logline for Nightmare of the Wolf.
The filming of the second season of The Witcher, which had a troubled production and ended in April 2021, endured several shutdowns because of Covid-19 and again briefly when Henry Cavill injured himself on set.
The second season will track the story of Geralt further who takes Princess Cirilla (Freya Allan) back to his childhood home of Kaer Morhen as he tries to protect her and her powers from the world, thinking that Yennefer (Anya Chalotra) died during the Battle of Sodden.
"I played the season one way deliberately, which was Geralt out in the wilds and without the opportunity for vast swathes of dialogue," said Henry Cavill at WitcherCon.
"I thought it best to be the man who says less because that seems like he's thinking more.
"And that was the intention with that. But once you get into a scenario with Cirilla, and the Witchers and his home space and with those people who he already knows, I was of the opinion that you had to let him be verbose and be philosophical and speak more and be intellectual, because that's what he is. He's not just a big old white-haired brute," he said.
