The announcement of the new cast members for the third season comes nearly two weeks after Netflix officially announced that
production on The Witcher Season 3 had begun. The third season of the show does not have a definitive release date as of yet, but the limited prequel series
The Witcher: Blood Origin is
expected to release at some point this year.
You can check out the descriptions of the various characters, straight from Netflix, below:
- Gallatin (Robbie Amell): "A born fighter, Gallatin leads an army of guerrilla Scoia'tael fighting on behalf of Nilfgaard. Unafraid to speak his truth, Gallatin's loyalty to his people ultimately leads him on a collision course with Francesca over power."
- Milva (Meng'er Zhang): "A human adopted by the dryads of Brokilon Forest, Milva is a fierce and talented huntress. Exact archery skills coupled with a stone-cold aptitude for survival make her a formidable adversary in the unforgiving Continent – those that cross her, do so at their peril."
- Prince Radovid (Hugh Skinner): "Royal playboy and younger brother to King Vizimir, Radovid finds himself suddenly a man on the inside of the Redanian Intelligence. With his good looks and drunken charm, Radovid amazes with how incisive he can be in political affairs, but it's all games until someone gets hurt."
- Mistle (Christelle Elwin): "Mistle is a member of The Rats, a gang of misfit teenagers who steal from the rich and give to themselves – and sometimes the poor. She is street hard, suspicious of everyone and out for revenge, until a chance meeting that will change everything."
