Netflix has released the official trailer for The Witcher season 3 part 2 – and it looks like Henry Cavill’s Geralt is ready to make his last, heart-wrenching stand.
The two-minute-long teaser, which you can watch below, is packed to the rafters with large-scale battles, thrilling moments, and even the appearance of a unicorn (long time fans will know the significance of this scene).
But it’s the impending departure of Cavill’s Geralt, who is leaving The Witcher TV series after the third season ends, that takes center stage in this emotionally-charged trailer. And, even though we know Liam Hemsworth will replace Cavill as the titular character from season 4 onwards, it appears as though Cavill’s Geralt will give his life to keep surrogate daughter Ciri safe from danger.
In our review of The Witcher season 3, we said one of the best Netflix shows of all-time was “losing its magical touch” and that “a show of The Witcher’s scale, scope, and caliber needs to aim much higher than just ‘doing enough'”. Based on the volume 2 trailer, though, it’s possible that season 3’s final episodes might deliver a grandstand, emotive end to a divisive entry in the series’ history.
The Witcher season 3 volume 2, which consists of the final three entries, will launch on Netflix on Thursday, July 27.
