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

The White Wolf is making his final appearance as production for the fifth and concluding season of *The Witcher* is now in full swing. Excitingly, new set photos have emerged online, showcasing Liam Hemsworth stepping into the iconic role of Geralt de Rivia. These images, which have surfaced via the dedicated fan site Redanian Intelligence, capture Hemsworth donning the character's trademark long blonde hair. Alongside him are familiar faces such as Meng'er Zhang reprising her role as Milva and Joey Batey returning as Jaskier, both of whom were part of the ensemble during Henry Cavill's tenure as Geralt. Hemsworth was confirmed to take over from Cavill starting with Season 4 and through to the final season back in October 2022.

The leaked set photos also tease the introduction of new characters for Season 4, who will continue their journey into the final season. Among them is the legendary actor Laurence Fishburne, known for his role in *Morbius*, who will portray Emiel Reigs.

Based on these images, fans are buzzing with speculation that Season 5 may draw inspiration from Andrzej Sapkowski's *Tower of the Swallow*, particularly the plot involving Geralt's encounter with beekeepers and his subsequent journey to the druids. However, with Season 4 yet to premiere, the narrative could take numerous turns, leaving plenty of room for anticipation and speculation.

Henry Cavill isn't the only cast member to depart the series; Kim Bodnia, who played Geralt's mentor Vesemir, will also not return for Season 4 due to scheduling conflicts. Netflix has yet to announce Bodnia's replacement for the role, and there is no official release date set for Season 4 either.
