Liam Hemsworth takes over the role of Geralt of Rivia in Netflix’s “The Witcher” Season 4, and we’ve learned today that Sharlto Copley, James Purefoy, Danny Woodburn have joined the cast.
Per Variety, “Copley will play the infamous bounty hunter Leo Bonhart from The Witcher novels. Purefoy will play Skellen, a high-ranking spy and court advisor to Emhyr who is also a prominent figure in the novels. Woodburn will play Zoltan, a fan favorite dwarf character from the novels and Witcher video games.”
The trio joins Liam Hemsworth as well as Laurence Fishburne, Anya Chalotra, Freya Allan and Joey Batey in the highly anticipated 4th Season of the globally renowned, award winning show which will return to production this Spring.
After the shocking, Continent-altering events that close out season three, the new season follows Geralt, Yennefer, and Ciri who are faced with traversing the war-ravaged Continent and its many demons apart from each other.
If they can embrace and lead the groups of misfits they find themselves in, they have a chance of surviving the baptism of fire — and finding one another again.
Lauren Schmidt Hissrich serves as the creator, showrunner, and executive producer of “The Witcher.”
Sharlto Copley is having a busy year. The District 9 actor can be seen in this week’s The Monkey Man and soon after in bloody brawler Boy Kills World. James Purefoy may be best known in the horror space for his roles in Resident Evil and Solomon Kane, while Danny Woodburn is most recognized for his role in “Seinfeld.”
Steve Gaub, Mike Ostrowski, and Javier Grillo-Marxuach executive produce along with Tomek Baginski and Jarek Sawko of Platige Films and Jason Brown and Sean Daniel of Hivemind Content.
“The Witcher” Season 4 will begun production this spring. Expect to hear a lot more about the upcoming final season as production gets underway.
