The White Wolf is making his final appearance. Production for the much-anticipated fifth and final season of *The Witcher* is currently in full swing, and fans have been treated to new set photos featuring Liam Hemsworth stepping into the iconic role of Geralt of Rivia. These seemingly leaked images, available via the dedicated Witcher fan site Redanian Intelligence, showcase the *Hunger Games* actor fully transformed with Geralt's signature long blonde hair. Alongside Hemsworth, familiar faces such as Meng'er Zhang reprising her role as Milva and Joey Batey returning as Jaskier are also seen. These characters have been a part of the series since Henry Cavill, formerly known for his portrayal of Superman, led the cast. Hemsworth was announced as Cavill's replacement for both Season 4 and the concluding Season 5 back in October 2022.

The set photos also introduce new characters set to appear in Season 4 and carry through to the final season, including the legendary actor Laurence Fishburne, known for his role in *Morbius*, who will portray Emiel Regis. These images hint that Season 5 might draw inspiration from Andrzej Sapkowski's *Tower of the Swallow*, where Geralt encounters beekeepers who guide him towards druids. However, with Season 4 yet to be released, the narrative could still take numerous turns, leaving much to anticipate before fans can piece together the storyline.
Henry Cavill isn't the only cast member to depart from the series. Kim Bodnia, who played Geralt's father figure and mentor Vesemir, will not return for Season 4 due to scheduling conflicts. Netflix has yet to announce who will take over the role, and there's no official release date for Season 4 as of now.
